PageRank in plain words: it’s a link‑analysis formula (the original “random‑surfer” model from Page & Brin) that scores pages by how links flow through the web graph — links from well‑linked pages pass more weight than links from low‑quality pages. It’s a mathematical foundation for “link equity,” not a complete ranking recipe on its own. (bibbase.org)

That helps explain why some replies here are cautious. As suggested, a single PageRank number doesn’t tell the whole story — Google uses hundreds of signals (content relevance, site quality, user context, etc.) when serving results — and the public 0–10 Toolbar PageRank is gone (Google removed the visible toolbar scores in 2016). You can’t query an official Google “PageRank” value anymore. (developers.google.com)

If the goal is to judge link authority today, use vendor metrics as proxies — Moz’s Domain Authority, Ahrefs’ Domain Rating, Majestic’s Trust Flow and similar scores each model link strength differently and can help prioritize outreach and audits. Treat them as comparative indicators, not Google’s internal score. That’s a more practical approach than chasing a single PR figure. (moz.rankious.com)

Actionable takeaways (build on points from and ): aim for editorial, relevant links from authoritative sites; use sensible internal linking to concentrate value on key pages; avoid link schemes (paid links, mass exchanges, PBNs) because Google flags those; and only use the Disavow tool after a careful audit and failed removal attempts or when you have a manual action. Monitor trends in Search Console plus one reliable backlink tool to measure progress. (developers.google.com)

It doesn't work and it doesn't mean anything significant except (I assume) to Google.

No one have idea how Google gives Page Rank for websites, because Google used hundreds of algorithms to give rank to a specific page and no one familiar with those but we can follow some ethical steps to get a high page rank or it's surely came after a lot of smart work.
To check Page Rank of your page visit prchecker.info, SEO Quake Tool, Google Toolbar.

Thanks,

PageRank is a measure of how authoritative your content is, your pagerank is calculated by analyzing the number of backlinks pointing to your site and the flow of pagerank from that particular webpage. You would benefit from backlinks that are placed on websites that have a high pagerank but not on link farms. You might get short term benefits if you place your links on link farms but on the longterm you are standing at a chance of having your website penalized or even de-indexed from Search engines.

Google sees your website how your site link with other websites and how popular your website in internet users. These websites must be relevant with your keywords and must be high rank. Then google gives you a rank this called page rank.

It's a system of ranking your website's quality. The bigger you have the pagerank the better.
