    Does anyone here know if Google Analytics tracks/displays the average visit time on your website?

    If so, where do I find it?

    Go to content optimization then to content performance then to length of visit.

    hope this helps

    You sir, are a star!

    Do you know if there's any way to find average time on site, rather than varying ranges?

    Only way I know to do it is to use top right hand side and click export and then you can download it and figure it out.

    That's what I ended up doing. I now have a little excel template to figure that out

    I'll piggy-back here to mention that on content optimization -> content drilldown it shows an average time spent on each page, but also an average time spent overall at the bottom. Not sure how accurate that is, because based on Jelf's suggestion above, I got a figure that's a factor of 5 different from what shows on the page I'm pointing out. Skewed distribution, to be sure, but still...
