Many people think that an image looks better than text for headings and menu. Ofcurse, an image can make your site look more destinctive, but in the terms of seo images for headings and menus are a big mistakes

One of the mistake I believe is to NOT make your own network of websites.

I'm not sure I get #6. I think meta tags are very important and I make sure all of my pages have different meta tags...

Not having a Genuinely Good Content Site is another mistake.
A god content with well arranged pages will help a lot.

Covers a variety of actions. Getting too many bad links in (ie. casinos), buying links, links from link farms, etc.

No that's not what he mean I think, let me try to explain it
As what Google's webmaster guidelines states
Quote:
|
The Google crawler doesn't recognize text contained in images.
|
thus it makes your image as plain image, now to make use of it in terms of SEO add an ALT attribute in your image.
