Keywords and/or Key phrases are what searchers type into their search engines to find your particular product or services. For example, if I wanted to find a Cosmetic Surgeon I would type "Cosmetic Surgeon" into my search engine and wait for the results to list.
The science behind SEO is matching what people think when they search with the content and keywords on your website. There's also the technical SEO science of how the content is structured and laid out on the page and also how it's embedded in the underlying source HTML that will ultimately determine your websites visibility.
Think of it like this - would you pay a sign writer to paint a very large sign and then have it placed on your roof facing the sun where no one could see it? Of course not! And websites are just the same - you must place your website in front of potential customers in order for them to find you - at that's where SEO comes in.
Page Position is where your site appears in the search engine result list (SERL), a page position of 1 means you're at the top of the list and a page position of 45,000 means you'll probably never be discovered.
A page position of somewhere between 1 to 8 means there's a good chance you'll be seen and maybe even be "clicked on", it also means you don't have to pay for these Keywords/Key phrases in your advertising budget as you're already at the top of the page index.
The Page Rank is a value that is assessed by search engines and passed between pages via links. While page rank is important at the fundamental SEO level, as it can help your page position, it doesn't add a lot of value in this context of listing by keyword or key phrases. (Page Rank is often misunderstood as it's name does not refer to it's function, but rather it's founders name 'Larry Page, CEO of Google Search Engine".)
In conclusion, regular SEO maintenance will ensure you're getting the very best results for your advertising budget. You either pay to be at the top of the page position or you use SEO science to put you at the top, either way, you'll need a healthy mix of both Search Engine Optimisation and paid advertising if you want to be discovered.
