    I agree, that's a pretty good bounce rate on average.

    There are numerous challenges with relying solely on conversion.
    1. Conversion rate is typically 1 percent implying that the amount of data needed before you can make any decision and have confidence in it, is large.
    2. Conversion analysis is dependent upon attribution methodologies. Online marketers frequently spend considerable time determining the optimal attribution methodology for their efforts. Google Analytics supports six attribution models. The net result being that the attribution model you select materially impacts the way you will value different SEO and SEM initiatives relying solely and directly on conversion. Each method has it’s own biases.
    An alternate approach would be to look at metrics beyond conversion rate per keyword. These metrics can be used to determine whether the visitors to your website were “happy” with their experience and if that happiness will likely result in a conversion in this visit or later.
    Attribution methodologies are still untactful – they just provide fewer lenses through which to assess your keywords. With this “happiness” approach, you can distinguish between the value of different keywords and SEO strategies by correlating bounce rate, time on site, and product or category page views to conversions and then determine what search initiatives are driving the most visitors who will likely convert at some point.
    Some of the commonly used happiness metrics are:
    • Bounce rate: What percentage of the people bounced quickly (had just one page view on your site)? A high bounce rate may imply “unhappy user”.
    • Page views per session: Number of pages a used viewed in a session. Session is typically defined as 30 minutes of no activity by the same user.
    • Time on site: Amount of time spend on your site as measured in seconds.

    Bounce rate less than 20% is really awesome. Such type of bounce rate generally seen on the video or images related websites.
