5 - don't use <font size=7> instead of <h1>, GoogleBot hates

Use <h1> w/o any big and use stylesheets if you want to recommend
bigger font sizes to the reader's browser. And if you ever use sizes,
use *relative* ones (+1 or so, or better the equivalent of that in
CSS).

8 - don't use long lists of <br><br><br>, it has exactly the
   same effect as one <br> by definition with every browser
   supporting an absolute minimum of Web standards.  A long
   list of <br><br><br> immediately before the </body></html>
   is pointless.

Use stylesheets.

9 - avoid <center> like hell unless you intend to close it by a
   </center> later.  Maybe try <div align="center"> and close
   it with </div> at the correspoding end.  In the case of a
   table try <table align=center><tr><td>...</td></tr></table>

Use stylesheets and structural elements.

Use tables only if you tabulate things, not for layout.
