You're right. However, as far as I can see, I don't think the kind of keywords your have in your titles, etc. are not user-friendly. As Dejan says, they look like perfectly OK to me. Don't worry too much

RE: Impact of Internal VS Inbound Links
IMHO, internal linking optimization really worth it when your website has reached a pretty large scale (several thousands of pages). More especially, internal linking can have a very great impact if your website provides local content. See real estate websites such as Zillow, Trulia & co. They can rank very well on local searches without having external backlinks on their pages, just because they have a powerful root domain + an excellent internal linking.

RE: Same language many countries
I recommend you consolidate all your content on the same domain (mysite.be) using a subfolder for your language (because it is better to consolide backlinks to the same root domain) :
www.mysite.be/fr/ (or just www.mysite.be if French is your default language).
www.mysite.be/de/
www.mysite.be/nl/You won't have any duplicate content issue since your content will be written in different languages. Just make sure each page is accessible through a unique URL for each translation.

RE: Are Google now indexing iFrames?
Normally, it would be www.domain.com (unless it doesn't provide any content outside the iFrame).
But it is not abnormal to also see iframe.domain.com in the SERPS, since it may have some backlinks pointing to it.
Anyway, using iframes is a weird technique and I recommend you merge those into www.domain.com if possible (and don't forget to do some 301 redirections to tell Google your pages have definitely moved to www.domain.com).

RE: Does it matter if my domain has a .com .org. net extention?
Prefer .COM extension if possible, or your country's TLD if your website is targeted to your country only.
.ORG is ok : see seomoz.org
.NET is ok too but I personally don't like them

RE: Singular / Plural
Hi Jacob,
This clearly won't hurt your website / rankings. Try also to put some
once with "Sticker mural" and another time with "Stickers muraux".

RE: How do you properly target locally with anchor text?
I recommend you reading this article: http://www.davidmihm.com/local-search-ranking-factors.shtml
This is the bible for me in terms of local search.

RE: Good Free Web Directories
I personally never found a good directory worth registering nor paying...
Actually, there is one directory which actually worth it: SEOMoz, by reaching 200 MozPoints and removing the nofollow attribute from your profile

RE: Https redirect
If the 301 redirection is correctly implemented (a 301 redirection for each single http page to the https page), this should be OK. From a theorical point of view, you may loss around ~10% of the linkjuice from existing backlinks. However, I personally never noticed a negative impact of my rankings on this kind of massive website redirection.
Here are a just few things I would recommend you pay attention to:
- Make 100% sure you correctly implement your 301 redirections.
- Once you've correctly implemented your 301 redirections, submit an XML sitemap of your old URLs (starting with standard http://) to ask Google to recrawl your old URLs and see that they have been 301-redirected to https://* URLs. This will make Google update its index more quickly.
- Also make sure your https website doesn't require resources (such as images, javascripts, css files) that are not served in https. If your HTTPS pages require resources served in HTTP, Internet Explorer will popup a warning message asking for the user if he wants to display resources which are not secured.
My two cents.

RE: Opinions on Alt tags
I personnally never heard of this technique (to keep only one alt tag) and thus, I never tried it.
My personal feelings lead me to think it is not natural and I would not recommend using this technique.

RE: How to improve on page Optimization ?
Once you've made sure your site is fully crawlable, on-page / on-site optimization is the very next step.
While it is one of the first steps on the long (never ending) road of SEO, on-page optimization is very important and you want to make sure content on your pages are optimized as soon as possible.
I recommend you using SEOMoz' Term Target tool. It will provide you with great tips on what and how optimize on your page : http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/on-page-keyword-optimization/new

RE: Did Google's Farmer Update Positively/Negatively Affect Your Search Traffic?
Strictly no impact.
We (a French real estate company) currently receive around 600K unique vistors per month from search traffic and as far as I can see, there is strictly no impact on our traffic coming from search engines.
By the way, the new Q&A forum for PRO is just f*cking awesome! Just love it! Keep up the great work guys,

RE: H1 tags the same on all pages - problem?
I would stop using the
tag for the header / compagny logo. This is definitely not the title of your page. Just use an tag with a proper alt attribute for your header logo.
You'll then be able to have one unique
tag on each of your page, where you'll be able to enter the real title of your page.

RE: Marketing URLs - best practices
As long as you correctly implement redirects using 301 code (permanent redirect), to inform search engines your pages have definitely moved to new URLs, there should not be any problem.

RE: Are footer links at the end of each page still considered to be a valid tactic?
From a user experience perspective, I like putting "exit" links in the footer so that when the user reaches the end of the page, he has some relevant links to continue reading content on my websites.
From a SEO perspective, indeed, Google doesn't seem to pass a lot of linkjuice to those links, as long as it identify them as footer links.
