    The question on "what is an acceptable bounce rate for Google, showing in Google Analytics, was first placed in this thread in 2006 - and I had the same question just now, 6 years later - googled it and arrived here. As I looked at my stats for my healthy diet blog, which shows a bounce rate of 5.15 percent, thinking it would be a lot higher. Perhaps, showing connecting post head lines under each post, easily accomplished with a plugIn if you run Wordpress as the framework for your blog, sparks visitors interest to read on... Quality guidelines for Google haven't really changed that much in years. Common sense still rules.

    I have 75% bounce rate on my site. But my site ranking is still good for many keywords.

    >> Bounce rate is the percentage of single-page visits or visits in which the person left your site from the entrance page.
    >> A high bounce rate generally indicates that site entrance pages aren’t relevant to your visitors.

    I would say that an acceptable bounce rate just depends on your individual site.

    If someone lands on a landing page, and there is no need to leave that page, your bounce rate will be 100%, so it really depends on the individual site as to what an acceptable bounce rate is.

    Acceptable bounce rate would be between 45 and 65% with a rate in the 50% being realistic.

    bounce rate is that users come on your site and exit due to non availability of information

    Bounce Rate?


    The % of single "entrance(landing)" page visit where person left site.
    A high bounce rate indicates that site landing page are not relevant to visitors.


    And i thing it should be arround 40% to 60%.


    But incase or E-commerse sites the bounce rate should be high.

    This has alot to do with your site & traffic. What traffic is it? direct? Organic? Bought?

    All that and i am sure more would say what is an acceptable bounce rate.

    Bounce rate means how many visitors visited your website and close within 10 seconds.

    The preferred bounce rate should be 30% to 40%.

    Bounce rate is the percentage of visits in which visitors left the site within 5 seconds or less.
