    I thought it was so originally but if I do a check, some of the web sites that have lower PR than me are ranked higher in the search engines. I guess SERP depends on more factors than just PR.

    Generally you will have to build backlinks, optimize your pages and write quality content.

    PR is one of the factors that influence your results but not the only. Google use an impressive amount of algorithms for ranking results and this is like an ongoing task for google, it improve and change always.

    Adding your target keywords in your content and putting them in Bold or Italics.
    Also, Wordpress is already SEO'd really well.
