Also, besides buying an expensive placement on dmoz.org or emailing hundreds of webmasters for a link exchange who never seem to respond, how EXACTLY can I get a high PR for my website? Submitting to free directories doesn't seem to do a whole lot because most directories have a decent PR on their homepage which is not website your link is placed. If somebody can PLEASE help me out on this I will really be thankful.

Using these (PR) and other factors, Google provides its views on pages' relative importance. Of course, important pages mean nothing to you if they don't match your query. So, Google combines PageRank with sophisticated text-matching techniques to find pages that are both important and relevant to your search. Google goes far beyond the number of times a term appears on a page and examines dozens of aspects of the page's content (and the content of the pages linking to it) to determine if it's a good match for your query.

That's why Google creates PageRank...
