For #3, It is recommended you should create a username with keywords. It will help you rank better and also allow the visitors to identify what your business is all about. There are many other ways to build links for your business: Guest posting Forum post Social Networking Q & A platforms like Quora Email marketing
Pay attention to the local rules on each forum. Sometimes links placement could be prohibited. You can also try to connect and cooperate with opinion leaders in your sphere. For example, you can offer them some value and they will give you more visitors.
Robert, #1-#4 you should be building YOUR brand, the name of your business first. Google favors brands now. Think of YouTube - it's a brand. Remember search intent when targeting keywords. Buyer keywords or commercial intent, not just generic. You're actually offering a "service" so you need to include that "intent" within your targeted keywords. Ex. Video Editing Service, Affordable Video Editor, Best Video Editing Service, etc
Brand links and PR links first as well as all social and Web 2.0 profiles. Use all brand name links. We call these Foundation links.
