PR - Page Rank PR is determined (nutshell) by backlinks (links to your site) and keywords (meta tags) from what I understand (I'm a bit new, as well)
If you download the Google Toolbar it will show you the PageRank of a site. It is ranked anywhere from 0 to 10. The higher the number the higher the PageRank. Generally, you received PageRank by the quantity and QUALITY of sites that link to you. The quality of the PageRank is dependant on several factors such as age of the site, where the links are coming from, etc. Try searching on this forum for more descriptions.
Page rank is in indicators. Page rank improves as you increase your number of backlinks. SERPs (Search engine result pages) is what matters. In order to get better positioning you need to increase the number of backlinks you have from related sites. This is when anchor and other SEO methods kick in. eg my blog http://www.exposedseo.com if i was to target keywords such as "marketing", "SEO" and "Blog" i would get backlinks eg Exposed SEO, Marketing blog and SEO Marketing from websites about related subjects.
