      Dear friends,  I have a question. How google decide bounce rate?

      For an example- I open a website through organic keyword from Google. Now I have tab of landing page in browser I do not close this tab for 10 minutes and continue doing my other things after some time I come back on that tab and close. Can Google know? This page has been read till 10 minutes. Can Google decide the bounce rate for this session?

      If I do some click boost for my negative reviews can I do same thing in my website? Is it useful?

      If I open one tab and come back after one day than what happen? Silly question but confusing me so please help me.

      I will be very grateful to you! Thanks all

        Hey Sarwan,

        A bounce rate can be defined as a percentage of sessions/(visits) where only one interaction occurs. It's actually measured by a first arrival of a visitor, and if there isn’t a second interaction within next 30 minutes – it counts as “a Bounce”."

        So, in this way, if you're viewing a page, and leaves your browser idle or left that page open for longer than 30 mins, it will register as a bounce. And, if you continues to navigate after this delay, a new session will occur. Same applies, if you keep open the tab for a whole day.

        See the attitude image for more understanding.

        Hope this clear your confusion!

        Umar

        • In Google SERPs some companies / government agencies have a Google-generated card for their organization and it references their Wikipedia page. It does not show for all companies /orgs that have a Wikipedia page. What is the criteria to have it shown?
