Totally agree, the more time a visitor spends on your site the more chance you have of converting them into readers, buyers etc….

The idea I was posing was one of putting your most enticing content first, in order to show your visitors why they should stay instead of them having to search for the reasons.

Some say if the visitor leaves immediately, Google sees it as a bounce, some say they give the visitor even 10 seconds time.
Therefor, another useful measurement is the visitor’s time on the site.

Thanks for the clarification on bounce rate, it was a bit of a rambling post and probably didn’t go into as much depth on the analytics side as needed.

Great post, it’s good to see your experiments are paying off!

One quick clarification for those that are new to analytics software packages: the metric “bounce rate” means different things depending on the analytics software you are using.

In Google Analytics, which is being used in this example, “bounce rate” means the percentage of people that saw only this page and then exited the site, as is stated above.

However, in other Analytics packages, “bounce rate” can mean something different. For example, in the popular ClickTracks, “bounce rate” means the percentage of visitors which were on the page for less than 5 seconds before leaving.
