I want to know what is PR4, PR2, PR9 I see when people talk about page rank ?

I have used the http://www.iwebtool.com/ tools for Google.

But dont really understand. Any info ?

Also, any quick tips for being listed or ranked on search engines ?

So far, I have submitted to dmoz.org, but yet have to be accepted.

Thanks
Patrick

Page rank is a small part of the overall search results ranking system. High page rank means your site has other sites linking to it, with information relevent to your site and with good page ranks themselves.

For the most part, page rank is a highly overrated concept. It makes site owners feel good that they score well on a scale of 1-10. But it's not a high contributor to a site's ability to rank well. It's more of an indicative correlator that says a site has already done well.
