Well for number 7, you can still change it! And if you have lots of images on your site – you should do this with all of them! Google Bot cannot recognise images and by adding the alt and title tags – it can then read these images!

As for having a flash website – perhaps you need to focus on the content of your site to counter-balance the amount of flash… do a keyword analysis, then start adding content regularly with these keywords…? Blog is a good tool but may not be as good as your original website – which may be rectified before switching over fully..

I hope this helps in some way…

All the advice you give is absolutely great, and I can’t believe number seven never dawned on me, considering that a certain photo on my site is one of my greatest referrers to my blog.

I only wish I would have realized number twenty before I designed my business website. Now I have a pretty Flash website that doesn’t pull search engines–which is why I’m combining it over into my blog bit by bit.
