I'll put in a link tomorrow but I jack from the rear of the car going under the bumper and jack from one of three points, I don't want to describe it wrong so I will post a link/picture in the morning. Then I put the jack stands at the jack points that you can use when changing a tire using the spare tire jack.
There is also a thread on here somewhere, you can put the whole car on 4 stands with only 2 lifts of the jack. I use 3 and do it in stages.
Edit: Figure 2 is where I lift the back, and I usually lift from the left because the way my garage is.

For the from I then lift from the factory jack point and put my stand on the reinforced area shown in figure 1.
