Good points. I just didn't get your point by the No.7 as image headings, you mean avoiding image links and using the text links?

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

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.

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.
