Comments on: How The Bounce Rate of Your Website Can Affect Your Google SERP http://www.itsabhik.com/seo/bounce-rate-and-google-serp.html My Roads to Make Money Online Wed, 08 Feb 2012 14:40:43 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: libau http://www.itsabhik.com/seo/bounce-rate-and-google-serp.html#comment-15992 libau Fri, 29 Oct 2010 03:01:04 +0000 http://www.itsabhik.com/?p=334#comment-15992 Hi Abhik, good info. Not everyone mentions that bounce rate is a factor in SERP, many SEO focus on backlink stuff. But if you'll get into what Google always says, that visitors experience is the most important factor in SERP, bounce rate really plays an important role in SERP. Backlink might just be a factor at first,but if google notices that people are turning around i.e your landing page doesn't provide substantial or even credible info, over time you will slide down in the SERP, other pages that might have lower backlinks can take the spot if they're content is what really users are searching for, that is lower bounce rate every time user visits the site.

By increasing your Adsense CTR you will effectively be increasing your bouncerate. It's a catch 22 scenario. I wonder how Google sees this paradox. Also, I wonder how Wikipedia don't see a disadvantage. Perhaps their sheer popularity outweighs the high bouncerate.... @Jackson: a good point.

If somebody clicks on an add from the page they land on and leaves the site...does that mean your site is not relevant?...even if it did, google makes tons of money from people making crappy sites and publishing adsense, where part of the strategy is often to get people to a site where they'll not find the greatest info and want to click on an ad to go somewhere else if it catches their eye It makes sense that bounce rate should play a factor in rankings, I wander how google views the bounce rate in terms of adsense clicks though.
