First of all output quality depends on the input quality, so you need good source material to achieve good encoded material.
Use 2 pass encoding for better quality
also there is no video bitrate in your command? (usually looks something like -b:v 800k)
and is the source already 480p, if not you'd have to also make sure to resize it to 640x480
If you need your content encoded for paysites or something and want quality encoding I recommend using zencoder.com it's not expensive and gives much better results.
