All browsing history does is if you visit a site regularly, it will show up higher in the rankings when you search for it! it isn't a true ranking.

It affects your personal results and not others, if you visited a site before it will come up higher on the SERPs.

This looks interesting but on second thought why would the history of browsing affect the ranking of the site in the search engines? What is the concern of the search engine crawlers to check on the history of browsing of the web page? I am stumped at this one unless there is someone who would post a convincing explanation about the browsing history vis-à-vis the influence in the search engine ranking.
