2. People say meta tags dont work but you might as well do it anyway just incase. I have 48 pages do i need to do every page or just the main ones as google will follow the links to the other pages anyway?

3. I have alot of pictures on my site, should i add my keywords to the Alt tags? If so should i alternate the keywords for the pictures?

4. Do blogs and RSS feeds make a big difference as well?

5. Finally is there anything else i should do? I'm looking to get a PR5 and really bring my keywords to the first page of google (example keyword is task chairs)

my site is mix-match.biz

Thanks

There is nothing wrong if you'll put meta tag data on every pages of your site...
But keep in mind that meta tags are not weighted heavily these days...
One main reason, Meta tags are being abused...
Most people tend to spam meta tags which trigger Google to put less weight on it...

Since Meta's has a less value on Google try to focus on content and link building.

3. Putting keywords on the Alt attribute of your image tag can help you gain traffic through image searches.
I agree with Dark-eye. Most of my blogs traffic are came from searches of images.

For me, every single thing we do as an Seo is important even if it is on-page or off-page, both things plays a big part so a balance between the two is what I prefer.

yes having a lot of quality backlinks help you keywords rank higher in SERP's

2. People say meta tags dont work but you might as well do it anyway just incase. I have 48 pages do i need to do every page or just the main ones as google will follow the links to the other pages anyway?

no theres no need to put 48 meta tags to all your page just place meta tags to your index and the page that you want to rank but if you want all of your site to rank then it indeed a good idea.

3. I have alot of pictures on my site, should i add my keywords to the Alt tags? If so should i alternate the keywords for the pictures?

infact yes that would be a great thing to do if you have a lot of images in your site it will also help your keyword ranking and it also help to generate traffic from search engines.

4. Do blogs and RSS feeds make a big difference as well?

yes it helps in traffic and keyword rankings because of the relevant back links it gives to your site it is a big help.

5. Finally is there anything else i should do? I'm looking to get a PR5 and really bring my keywords to the first page of google (example keyword is task chairs)

just continue to link build your site and needs to update your site regularly and wit for your domain to be stable, domain age is a big factor.

my site is mix-match.biz

Thanks

here is my response to your questions hope that it will help
