3. Get external links, this one is not as easy as it sounds as one things the engines look for is the importance of the site linking to you. So try to get better quality sites linking to you, rather than lots of lesser sites linking to you.
4. In terms of Google, your Page Rank will play a small part in your ranking. This is simply the importance that Google places on your site, as a score out of 10. Try to get links from sites with a higher Page Rank, rather than lots of sites with low Page Rank.
