If you are talking about page ranking (PR) then it works on how many and how good your backlinks (links pointing to your site) are. It also is based on how good and how original the content of your site is. A good PR7 is better then 100 PR0 links. The better the links the higher the ranking. Hope this helps.
You can get your website rank depending on what SE do you want them to rank!? Example if you want to rank to Yahoo... quality contents is needed for the site to rank.. while for the Google... Quality backlinks and quality links and more quality links.....

Submitting to search engines has long since not been that effective. You'll find 95%+ of your traffic comes from the big boys - Google, Yahoo, etc. Don't worry about submitting - just build decent content, do link exchanges, submit to directories, and place _meaningful_ comments on blogs that follow: http://courtneytuttle.com/blogs-that-follow Good luck! ps. check my sig to learn how I built a site that has 800,000 backlinks.
