Did Google just killed SEO for good?

This move by Google to make personal search the default behavior, will make SEO nearly impossible if most users depend only on their personal search history for SERP results.

Does this kill SEO for Google?

No, they just made it more interesting. Any process that can be designed can be reverse engineered. It only means that pro's can charge more.

Hi plg008,

SEO will remain as important as ever, it just makes it difficult to check your rankings and adds a new wrinkle that you may be able to exploit. (early bird gets the worm). Personalized search has been the default for sometime if you have a Google account. So this has been phasing in over a the last couple of years.
