    Ok. Let's start

    1. Domain Aging:
    I think this only works if the domain was always yours. To buy an old domain will not necessarily help you. To leave a page for 6 months or a year, and start link building then, can help.

    2. Open Source CMS Website Development
    Only helps if SEO optimized. But helps you saving time!

    3. Tons of Content
    Helps you if you can build enough links for your tons of content

    4. Keyword Saturation
    Can help but is a small part of onpage optimization

    5. On page Optimization
    Definitley helps

    6. Google / Yahoo / MSN Verification Code
    ???

    7. Linking Building (One , Two & Three Way) - Free / Paid
    Helps!

    8. Submission (Directory / Search Engine)
    Helps a bit. But takes lot of time you can spend in other things

    9. Social Bookmarking
    same as for point 8. if you have a sumbitte software it might be ok.

    10. Articles
    helps if they are placed in the right places (websites). article exchange is often a good solution.

    11. Press Releases
    helps

    12. Social Networking
    ???

    13. Forums / Blogs
    helps a little bit. give you some traffic for example via footer links.

    14. Anything More (There are more but I think lets start with this)
    perhaps linkbait

    I definetely agree with that. It's so often underrated but it's really important.

    1. Domain Aging
    it can help, but it's not crucial.

    2. Open Source CMS Website Development
    I dont think there's any search engine which can discriminate if you using a cms rather than another one.

    3. Tons of Content
    helps a lot, especially if the website gets daily updates

    4. Keyword Saturation
    overrated. Content must be readable first by crawlers, hiding keywords or small print keyphrases do not help.
    Just carefully put some keywords on the text, that's all.

    5. On page Optimization
    yep. probably on the top of the list.

    6. Google / Yahoo / MSN Verification Code
    Not too important

    7. Linking Building (One , Two & Three Way) - Free / Paid
    This is essential

    8. Submission (Directory / Search Engine)
    I've always thought that search engines have to find you, not the opposite. Submitting to whatever SE sounds just like "hello! could you please rank me!? hey I'm here!". Naaa.

    9. Social Bookmarking
    Nowadays it's probably one of the most important factors.

    10. Articles
    depends on the contents.

    11. Press Releases
    if you have a company probably, otherwise it's better to make some buzz through wellknown blogs.

    12. Social Networking
    Don´t really know.

    13. Forums / Blogs
    they work very well for traffic.
