That is true, but on my website, 70% of the visitors come from safari. How about that?
And besides, a high Bounce rate does not have to be bad, as it is always suggested.
Google releasing a large update today

A link from PBN has zero visits, no bounce rate, and no time on page and yet it counts. Magic.
Look at google snippets, it tells you how much they care about getting the right info ASAP to a user without even visiting a website. If bounce did count, they'd say 'visit this website for more info and click around ... to find out more'
It makes no sense.

Well we are talking about search engine optimization here so its obvious we are talking about google.com / or any other google.language
So you are using Googles product (The search engine), ofcours they have insight in every website that is listed in the SERP. Analytics is only a tool for you as a webmaster to be presented by some of the numbers.
Google have all insights on website using their search engine...
So if a customer search for something in Google.com , go to your website, do some action (or in this case just leave) obviously Google knows about this. Thats all of their recent updates been targeted like rankbrain and now all these different names

So the bounce rate has nothing to do with (Onpage) SEO?
Ok, I am interested in how Google knows this

And if they leave how does it hurt my website in terms of bounce rate? Let's say I'm selling shoes. One of my categories is 'red high heel shoes' and if after visiting the 'red high heel shoes' page/post they leave without browsing the blue or yellow shoe section, tell me how does it hurt my website? They did not visit the other sections because they were not interested in them, they didn't buy it or click 'add to cart' because they don't have the money or are not ready to buy or whatever ...
Please tell me how does it hurt the ranking of my website?
The problem in the 'SEO thing' is that some people will come up with all kind shit and metrics that don't count just to be different. If you look who is replying to my comments you'll see that he is selling his shit indexing service. His replies are just to get some free visibility.

From the moment the visitor come from Google search and returns back, this is enough to have a duration. If the visitor comes from a site that uses analytics, and the visitor goes back or returns to Google this is also sufficient.
It really should not be underestimated it would be a big mistake.
I think they can even know if a page is loaded and you are viewing another tab ... There are whole teams in Mountain view who are paid to think only about it so if we think about it they surely already done.
Regarding the link juice of a PBN it is very different. You have to think of authority and semantic power, you cannot classify them in the same way. This will be done even without a visit if they are indexed. They send trust. If the site that receives PBN links at a high bounce rate, it will go down for sure. It is sort of the ultimate test. The algorithm may be wrong but not the bounce rate.
If the user gets the answer to his question, he will stop looking. If he spends more time with your competitor, it means that he responds better to the request (and therefore he will be ranked higher).
And I will avoid continuing to teach you seeing how you finished your last post about me. If you think you are making yourself smart, you are on the wrong track.

You're just spamming this forum, probably noticed that most indexing services don't work anymore and trying to sell your shit indexing service with a link on your profile. Look at your stats, dead and all of the sudden active with a useless bounce theory. I hope that no one falls for this trap.

Please stop your off topic, we are talking about the Google update. If you are pretending to be an idiot this is your problem and those who will read next will surely realize that you are trying to avoid it.
So let's get back on topic and enlighten me what the latest google update is all about besides the useless 'bounce theory'

Yet this is very precisely what has happened since the update ...

I believe this core update is related to contents quality, and this do not means having a +5000 words articles of quality content, but having useful contents made for people and not for SEO..
Now, doing a simple logic reasoning, a bot would look mostly at the bounce rate and visits percentage over time, so my best tip here, is to do something like a 'content sculpturing' - shortly look at google analytics stats (12 months till today) and: remove, or improve, or (in case of backlinks) 301 redirect such existing contents having both high bounce rate and low visits (this is not something new and should have a good impact over time for those sites affected by this kind of update).

Ahrefs estimates traffic, not accurate, just an estimate over time, serpbook may lag behind, stick to what you see in google analytics. Did you make any changes in the past few days to your website:?

Nah, no changes. It's been trending up since a massive loss in November. The last week has seen a big increase.
Serpbook is updated every 2 hours and shows roughly 30% drop of tracked keywords out of the top 3.
I can only guess that long tails are up across the board.
On track to hit 10k page views today, up from 4k in February.

This update has hit my automotive websites real hard. I can see trash sites ranking higher than mine. Hopefully, as they say 2weeks it will stabilize
Same here, automotive news website. But something happened since last night, it seems that the website is recovering. Will analyze when i have more data.
