SEO is still important because Google has to get the baseline results from somewhere.
I think what this will do is get more people thinking about driving overall traffic from various sources and not just thinking about SERP's. And that's EXACTLY what Google wants so it drives more people to Adwords.
BTW, I'm seeing some serious differences in rankings (+/- 10 positions, first/second page of results) between the results from our office network and what I see at home.

Interesting. Any idea on what might be causing that? What kind of keywords are you seeing differences in?

And in addition to BecomeKnowns question, is there a considerable distance between the office and home? |

The KW with the highest spread is 'Hilton Head rentals'. Although there are only 2M+ results, it's a very competitive KW because a few dozen sites actively optimize for it. At home I show our site, Hilton Head 360, showing up between 15 and 17. At work it shows up between 6 and 8. |

Personalised search will have little, if any, effect on SEO as we know it. The only thing it will affect is ranking reports and clients may need to be educated more on the differences in what theyre seeing compared to everyone else. Keyword research, on site SEO, link building, snippet optimisation etc will all still be needed for a website to rank for the right keywords.

wow, loving that place, can you get me a little discount? Say 99% or so?  I actually do like the site, very easy to navigate and looks great. Only 1 little issue i noticed, some of the thumbnails are very blurry, when you open them up the image itself seems fine, so i can only guess something with the auto sizing is an issue? |

This one had me worried when I first heard about it. Because it means it will be more difficult to get new sites to rank well in Google
but I think most of us have multiple streams of traffic. SO if google goes a little wierd, there is always YAhoo, Bing and none search engine traffic
i just wonder why they want to mess with their defining factor

Only 1 little issue i noticed, some of the thumbnails are very blurry, when you open them up the image itself seems fine, so i can only guess something with the auto sizing is an issue? Thanks. The thumbnail image problem happens with older property images from when we first converted to our new site. What happened was we increased the size of the thumbnail, so thumbnails created before that change appear blurry. Because we have somewhere around 50,000 images on the site we decided not to make the changes ourselves and just wait until the listings cycled out of the system or the companies updated their images. We're now working with other print publishing companies to bring more of these 360 Network sites to destination areas throughout the U.S. We also launched another product for individual real estate agents that allows them to share syndicate their listings to other 360 Network sites as well as Yahoo real estate, Zillow, Trulia, Google Base, etc. It's all very exciting stuff. Now if the economy would pick up a little we could make some real money in 2010. |
