As you level, focus on Stamina and Intellect. Get +spell damage or +shadow damage when you can, but don't neglect Stamina. For other spellcasters, Intellect is more important than Stamina, but since warlocks can turn health into mana via Life Tap, Stamina is favored. +Spell damage stuff won't show up for a while, and it's really not worth going out of your way for, since most of the Outlands quest rewards have a pretty good amount of +spell damage. Once you get into the Outlands content, +spell damage will become more important than Stamina, but until then, focus on Stamina.
Spirit isn't exactly worthless, but isn't worth going out of your way for. Spirit makes you regen more mana when not casting, but, as previously noted, Life Tap and Drain Life makes that kind of unnecessary.
If you switch to Destruction, you'll want to keep an eye out for +spell crit gear, as Destro relies on big crits. Affliction and Demonology aren't really different in gear choices; your pet's attack power scales with your spell damage, and their stamina/intellect with yours, respectively. Agility and Strength have absolutely NO value to you.

My critical hit seems to be low as well on my range and cast. Is there a way to increase my critical hit with the above in mind.
The best way to boost spell crits is with gear that has +spell crit rating on it, but that won't really show up until the higher levels. Intellect WILL boost your spell crit, but the ratio is horrible and isn't really worth it.

I will probably get blasted on this one, but I hope someone will help. Thanks in advance to those who do.
Your post was well-worded, you didn't use a lot of "1337-speak" or AIM shorthand, and you were polite. Keep it up, and you won't get blasted. :)
You're welcome. :)
