    Bounce rate is a bit like golf scores: the lower the number the better. Idealy you should strive for around 10%, but 14% is an excellent bounce rate. Most sites average around 30%.

    It depends on the business. If you don't convert. try and get your bounce rate half and you will get results.

    A good bounce rate depents on the type of website and the goal of the website. You can't say that a bounce rate of 80% is bad if it's your goal to keep them on that page for as long as possible.
