Any small business owner would like to improve their web ranking among search engines (SE's) like Google to put their website in front of as many customers as they possibly can. The process of ranking optimizing your website to rank higher in SE's is known as search engine optimization

It is imperative to rank on the top pages of search engines, but most business owners struggle to achieve high rankings due to the fact that they not fully understand the value of link-building. As a matter of fact back links will encourage search engine spiders to visit your site more frequently.

Link-building is not something you do occasionally, but it is an ongoing process and if its not done the right way, your website might be removed from the search engine index, rather than improving yourweb ranking.

Quality of Links Are Important

All links are not created equal. For example, Google gives a link a rating based on the relevance it has to the content of your site, number of links on page, anchor text etc.

Page Rank Is Not That Important In Terms of Web Ranking

Google says page rank is their measure of the importance of a web page and what it indicates is how often they will visit your site. In other words, if you have are making regular changes to your website, Google will pick it up quickly if you have a higher page rank. It does not affect your ranking in the search engines.

While a high PR won't hurt, of all the factors mentioned above building a lot of links is the most important.
