It's one of the important Google algorithms and of course it matters in SERP. Keep in mind that your position in the Google SERP is based on many other factors: the relevancy of the content, its freshness, the keyword density, etc., besides the PR*.

*PR is Page Rank or PageRank

No but sites with a high page rank usually rank better than those that do not have a high PR.

Page rank is always very important for search position. A higher your page rank as higher your website in search engine result page. SEO can help to increase PR of your website.

I disagree. Because I saw a lot of results that depends of the domain name, links, content, the individual's location and so on, but not of the concrete PageRanks (or, at least, not so visible).
I will show you an example:
I use google.com.hk (because currently I am living in China) and I tried to see the results (SERP) about the keyword (keynumber) "111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111"

http://www.google.com.hk/search?q=111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

Right now what I see is: 1-st position for the funny website "http://www.111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111.com/"
Its current PageRank is 4 (4/10), according to http://www.prchecker.info/check_page_rank.php

The 2-nd position is also for the same website.
The 3-rd position is for a Youtube.com link. Youtube.com's PageRank is 9 (9/10) /http://www.prchecker.info/check_page_rank.php/
So?

PR is important for search engine position. But high PR does not mean high search engine position. Google consider over 200 factors for there search engine algorithm. PR alone cant make big difference.

Page Rank is very important for any website. Your website in the Google is displayed according to PR. So that if your website has high PR you can get your website is displayed top in the Google.

We discovered here that this "Your website in the Google is displayed according to PR." is not true. Read the topic carefully.

I am totally agreed with my friend.

PageRank (PR) was Google’s original secret weapon, a scale that would rank websites based on incoming links and where those links came from. Although its relevance has arguably faded a bit over the years as Google has added more and more criteria to site rankings, it still goes hand in hand with SEO and every webmaster out there wants to have a high PR.

But do you need a high PR to have a successful site? Search rankings are one thing, but what about actual site popularity and traffic?

Seems you also didn't read my post above where I showed that it's not like this. Probably for you guys the example with "111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111" is very complicated. OK, let's me choose another one. Let it be:

"I like SEO very much"

Let's choose some of the Googles - for example google.ca. And let's search it ("I like SEO very much"). According to this (^{http://www.google.ca/#hl=en&gs_nf=1&cp=22&gs_id=6&xhr=t&q=%22I+like+SEO+very+much%22&pf=p&newwindow=1&output=search&sclient=psy-ab&pbx=1&oq=%22I+like+SEO+very+much%22&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=&gs_upl=&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.,cf.osb&fp=c7e0b2884057cea9&biw=1024&bih=584}) SERP I can see:

1. odesk.com

2. Also odesk.com

3. forums.linuxmint.com

4. readbuddies.com

Now let's check out the current PageRank of these 3 websites:

According to these results: http://checkbulkpagerank.com/bulk_pagerank/results/4655#results

odesk.com PageRank 1
forums.linuxmint.com PageRank 5
readbuddies.com PageRank 1

If there is still some one who can't get it, I will show it together SERP + PageRank about "I like SEO very much":

SERP 1: odesk.com PageRank 1

SERP 2: Also odesk.com Also PageRank 1

SERP 3: forums.linuxmint.com PageRank 5

SERP 4: readbuddies.com PageRank 1

Any objections?

Yes, dear SEO master, but some of these people seems are still living with their old information and even don't understand my example. It's soooooooooo, sooooooooooooooo easy to make a few searches in Google and then to see that the SERP is not depending of the PageRanks that much as they think. Or may be they knew it, but just pretend to be so naive.

For everyone of them:

1) Read again the example with the "111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111".
2) Read again the example with the
"I like SEO very much".
