I’m setting up my blog right now and here’s the list that I’m using
Title Tag – this is easily manipulated in WP.
URLs – Get a permalink redirect plugin http://fucoder.com/code/permalink-redirect/
Tagging – Ultimate Tag Warrior (although I just install this and my tags are serving a 404 error…any ideas?)
Related Posts – Related Entries plugin
Popular Posts – Popularity Contest plugin
Make the blog post’s permalink URL from the title of the post
Adhesive plugin for sticky posts
Use the H1 and H2 tags wisely
Author pages for multiple authors are good too.

Hmm interesting; do you have links to the other plugins u mentioned besides the permalink redirect?
Here’s what I do for a 404 error:
http://www.comeuphither.com/blog/fred
(obviously fred doesn’t exist).
And here is a page I list my plugins on:
http://www.comeuphither.com/blog/plugins
Both of these are done with…well, plugins.
go to wp-plugins.net/ and type in the name of what you’re looking for or just google the names. They are all really easy to find.
I’m using wordpress as a CMS (no real blogging part at all) at: http://www.portagemma.com
For SEO I use;
AutoMeta
Head META Description
Add Meta Keyword Tag
SitemapView
Google Sitemaps
And all the website pages end in .html (I used the standard wordpress post system not there pages system).
I also use wp-cache to speed up to whole site (SEO related in the way – no one likes a slow website … even robots?).
