Hi there,
One of the most important things I've been told is title tags, title tags, title tags!! There is no room for vanity in title tags. What you do is more important than who you are. Repeating words is a no no unless they are good keywords.
e.g. on your "Our Products Page"
Your title tag is currently "Crystal Glass Fantastic: Our Products. These products make beautiful gifts for young or old."
Nice and descriptive for humans, but they've got to be useful to spiders too. Identify your most important words. With this one, I would say, the most important thing is Crystal Glass Gifts. Why use the word product twice? They may be your products but when you're online looking for a gift for someone, when was the last time you typed "Product" into google?
Maybe try changing your tag to: "Crystal Glass Gifts - Beautiful Gifts for everyone by Crystal Glass Fantastic"
Still makes sense to humans, still is descriptive about your product but more importantly it'll be more useful for spiders looking for the words crystal gifts which is a more likely search term!
Remember, always think like two sets of people - your customers and the spiders...!
Never tell your customers what you want to tell them - tell them what they want to hear!
Good Luck,
Cat

So would you recommend using the same title for everypage or different titles for the other pages?

Use a title that is descriptive of the page you are working on.

If you are trying to get good SERP rankings, keywords are one of the most important on page and off page factors in SEO. Off page keywords would be the most important of the 2, as SE's look at another sites opinion of your site and gives it much more weight than it does the content of your site. The relevance of you IBL's are important, if you are a site that sells purple cotton sheets, then a link from a website that offers advice on buying a car would be less than relevant. Try to get relevant links to your site, the more the better. That's not to say that you can't "force" a link to your page to have more relvance, you can accomplish this by using targeted keyphrases in your anchor text on the IBL page.
