You are also correct to highlight the massive importance of the title and header description tags in getting ranked in google. I would however disagree with the copy you put into a title tag. Yes you do need to put your targeted keyword in there but you also need to be clever about it. The main reason for SEO is to get it listed in search ranking. Visitors will use search engine to find answers to their problem. The will search for something and a list of results will be displayed. Now your title and meta description tags will be displayed in the results. If it doesn't appeal to the visitor they will not click on your link. So I believe to target a keyword or two in your title but make the title enticing. If you need to target other keywords write a new page. Overall Well done and I love your site.
