  • What is the the maximum time for a user to return to Google for the visit to be flagged up as a bounce in GA?

    - by Anonymous
    I know that Google measures bounce rates by how fast a user returns to the results page after clicking-through to a website. Roughly what is the maximum duration of the visit for the user to then return for it to be considered a bounce? i.e. <5 seconds, <30 seconds? I'm mainly interested as it appears a lot of users clicking through my PPC adverts (Adwords) are bouncing, despite my ads having a high quality score and the page's being entirely related to the adverts copy and at as best tied to what I think user's may be searching for from the key phrases I've selected so the high bounce rate (100% on some keywords) seems a bit strange. If a bounce isn't determined by time, but simply whether a user returns to the SERP after visiting my site or not after any amount of time that would make more sense but the average duration of visit for my keywords with a 100% bounce rate in GA is 00:00:00, which suggests a user immediately returned to the SERPs, which again, is odd. Is my GA data being skewed by https or anything like that? Scratching my head here.

  • Does a site's bounce rate influence Google rankings?

    - by Joel Spolsky
    Does Google consider bounce rate or something similar in ranking sites? Background: here at Stack Exchange we noticed that the latest Google algorithm changes resulted in about a 20% dip in traffic to Server Fault (and a much smaller dip in traffic to Super User). Stack Overflow traffic was not affected. There was an article on WebProNews which hypothesized that bounce rate might be a ranking signal in Google's latest Panda update. According to Google Analytics, these are our bounce rates over the last month: Site Bounce Rate Avg Time on Site ------------- ----------- ---------------- SuperUser 84.67% 01:16 ServerFault 83.76% 00:53 Stack Overflow 63.63% 04:12 Now, technically, Google has no way to know the bounce rate. If you go to Google, search for something, and click on the first result, Google can't tell the difference between: a user who turns off their computer a user who goes to a completely different web site a user who spends hours clicking around on the website they landed on What Google does know is how long it takes the user to come back to Google and do another search. According to the book In The Plex (page 47), Google distinguishes between what they call "short clicks" and "long clicks": A short click is a search where the user quickly comes back to Google and does another search. Google interprets this as a signal that the first search results were unsatisfactory. A long click is a search where the user doesn't search again for a long time. The book says that Google uses this information internally, to judge the quality of their own algorithms. It also said that short click data in which someone retypes a slight variation of the search is used to fuel the "Did you mean...?" spell checking algorithm. So, my hypothesis is that Google has recently decided to use long click rates as a signal of a high quality site. Does anyone have any evidence of this? Have you seen any high-bounce-rate sites which lost traffic (or vice-versa)?

  • A bounce-rate attack to manipulate SEO ?

    - by Denis Volovik
    This is a question to experienced people that might help us shed some light on the issue. We noticed a very strange behavior on our site, in Google Analytics. Some dude from Finland, namely, from Kouvola city is hitting one of our pages - only one page on our site, 'bout a hundred times per day, all with an average bounce rate of 90%+... This is causing our overall bounce rate to go up by 1 to 3% per day... which is very disturbing.. since we're trying to do our best in order to keep it as low as possible. And obviously having it jumped from ~24% to 27%, just because of that crazy dude is not making us happy at all... We tried implementing a geo-targeted script in order to catch this particular visitor and deliver him a juicy message, and it seemed like it helped in the beginning, it has stopped for a day or two, but now he's back... The geo-targeted script was also logging all IP addresses for page requests originating from Finland in order to find out more details and (in order to block them on the server level, later).. but thing is, it was all mainly cable or DSL connections with various, but not constantly repeating IPs... we are all wondering what is he up to really ? I think that this page should be kept updated with ideas on how to combat this and perhaps someone could also shed light on what it might be ? What is the reason for doing this "bounce-rate attack", as I call it? There was a similar question asked on stackoverflow earlier, with no meaningful answer - here - How to stop bounce rate manipulation.

  • Tried verything - Yet highest Bounce Rate?

    - by Sam
    I read a lot of blogs and tips articles on how to decrease bounce rate. I feel I write very good content (niche is science) and I setup a good design, with attractive features (like download as PDF etc.), increased site loading times (google page speed score is 80+) but even then my bounce rate is always above 90, sometimes 100 :(. I get 42% traffic from the US and google analytics reports no visitor staying for more than 10-12 seconds. Please guide me.

  • Constructive criticism for my bounce rate being so high [closed]

    - by Daniel
    The bounce rate on my website's product pages is 80%, which is terrible. Could you offer any opinions on whether you consider the user experience to be bad, and how I could possibly improve it? Other pages, such as the home and category pages, have acceptable bounce rates, but the vast majority of my traffic lands on the product pages. I already tried removing some Google ads for a couple of days, but this didn't seem to help at all. I'm working on doing A/B testing at the moment. (It's tricky, as the site is based on a CMS - I custom coded the [Joomla] component, so hopefully I can get this testing working.)

  • Low "time on site" and high bounce-rate in Japan

    - by Noam
    I'm seeing a substantially low "time on site" and high bounce rate from visitors coming from Japan. Comparing to other states, even in languages I don't speak, the stats are still dramatically worse. So I assume there's something specific to that nation, that I should understand in order to make their experience better. The content they are seeing is in Japanese, and I've also translated the head-lines, which to my surprise didn't make stats look better. The site doesn't have a mobile version, so I assume that might be part of the problem. Wanted to hear from your experience what other reasons might there be that are specific for Japan. UPDATE: The content itself was in Japanese all the time, that's the reason it attracts users from Japan. The head-lines were in English, so I only changed them.

  • My application's bounce rate jumped from 30% to 80% overnight

    - by davidrac
    My application is provided as a service that is embedded in other sites. I have google analytics installed on the login popup dialog which is a page of my application, which is opened from the host site (OAuth). About a week ago, I've noticed a sharp decrease in the number of new users registrations and a jump in the bounce rate (from ~30% to ~80%). This happened without any change in the application. I looked into technical parameters like page load time and error rates, but could not see any change in there. Any ideas what can cause this behavior?

  • Understanding the maximum hit-rate supported by a web-server

    - by SNag
    I would like to crawl a publicly available site (and one that's legal to crawl) for a personal project. From a brief trial of the crawler, I gathered that my program hits the server with a new HTTPRequest 8 times in a second. At this rate, as per my estimate, to obtain the full set of data I need about 60 full days of crawling. While the site is legal to crawl, I understand it can still be unethical to crawl at a rate that causes inconvenience to the regular traffic on the site. What I'd like to understand here is -- how high is 8 hits per second to the server I'm crawling? Could I possibly do 4 times that (by running 4 instances of my crawler in parallel) to bring the total effort down to just 15 days instead of 60? How do you find the maximum hit-rate a web-server supports? What would be the theoretical (and ethical) upper-limit for the crawl-rate so as to not adversely affect the server's routine traffic?

  • Bounce Email handling with PHP??

    - by mcfadder_09
    I am really new to this (not new to php). Here is my scenario: I have 2 emails accounts. [email protected] and [email protected]. I want to send email to all my users with [email protected] but then "reply to" [email protected] (until here, my php script can handle it). When, the email cant be sent, it sent to [email protected], the error message could be 553 (non existent email ...) etc. My question is: How do I direct all those bounce emails (couldn't sent emails) to [email protected] through a handling script to check for the bounce error codes? What programming language should I be for the "handling script"? What would the "handling script" looks like? Can give a sample? OR:(Big Question) What are the procedures I should follow to handle the bounce email ??

I have the following xml 40-Year Fixed Rate A 3 5.375 1.000 5.491 0 1 40-Year Fixed Rate B 5.500 0.500 5.579 0 1 40-Year Fixed Rate C 5.625 0.000 5.667 0 1 30-Year Fixed Rate A 3 5.000 1.000 5.134 0 1 30-Year Fixed Rate B 5.125 0.500 5.215 0 1 30-Year Fixed Rate C 5.250 0.000 5.297 0 1 20-Year Fixed Rate A 3 4.875 1.000 5.055 0 1 20-Year Fixed Rate B 5.000 0.500 5.121 0 1 20-Year Fixed Rate C 5.125 0.000 5.187 0 1 15-Year Fixed Rate A 3 4.250 1.000 4.467 0 1 15-Year Fixed Rate B 4.375 0.500 4.512 0 1 15-Year Fixed Rate C 4.500 0.000 4.570 0 1 10-Year Fixed Rate A 3 4.125 1.000 4.435 0 1 10-Year Fixed Rate B 4.250 0.500 4.454 0 1 10-Year Fixed Rate C 4.375 0.000 4.473 0 1 High-Balance 15-Year Fixed Rate D 3 4.250 1.000 4.461 0 1 High-Balance 15-Year Fixed Rate B 4.375 0.500 4.512 0 1 High-Balance 15-Year Fixed Rate C 4.500 0.000 4.563 0 1 High-Balance 30-Year Fixed Rate D 3 5.000 1.000 5.130 0 1 High-Balance 30-Year Fixed Rate B 5.125 0.500 5.211 0 1 High-Balance 30-Year Fixed Rate C 5.250 0.000 5.293 0 1 30-Year Fixed Rate Jumbo A 2 5.125 1.000 5.254 1 1 30-Year Fixed Rate Jumbo B 5.250 0.500 5.336 1 1 30-Year Fixed Rate Jumbo C 5.375 0.000 5.417 1 1 -- 15-Year Fixed Rate Jumbo A 2 5.000 1.000 5.220 1 1 15-Year Fixed Rate Jumbo B 5.125 0.500 5.270 1 1 15-Year Fixed Rate Jumbo C 5.250 0.000 5.320 1 1 -- 3/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate A 3 3.625 1.000 3.431 0 0 3/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate B 3.875 0.500 3.448 0 0 3/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate C 4.125 0.000 3.465 0 0 3/1 40-Year Adjustable Rate A 3 3.875 1.000 3.438 0 0 3/1 40-Year Adjustable Rate B 4.125 0.500 3.453 0 0 3/1 40-Year Adjustable Rate C 4.375 0.000 3.467 0 0 5/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate A 3 3.375 1.000 3.401 0 0 5/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate B 3.625 0.500 3.457 0 0 5/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate C 3.875 0.000 3.514 0 0 5/1 40-Year Adjustable Rate A 3 3.625 1.000 3.441 0 0 5/1 40-Year Adjustable Rate B 3.875 0.500 3.481 0 0 5/1 40-Year Adjustable Rate C 4.125 0.000 3.531 0 0 7/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate A 3 3.875 1.000 3.670 0 0 7/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate B 4.125 0.500 3.755 0 0 7/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate C 4.375 0.000 3.841 0 0 10/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate A 3 4.375 1.000 4.092 0 0 10/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate B 4.625 0.500 4.217 0 0 10/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate C 4.875 0.000 4.342 0 0 -- 2/2 ARM 30-Year (Purchase only) DH 5.250 0.000 3.709 0 0 -- High-Balance 5/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate D 3 3.375 1.000 3.366 0 0 High-Balance 5/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate B 3.625 0.500 3.404 0 0 High-Balance 5/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate C 3.875 0.000 3.454 0 0 High-Balance 7/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate D 3 3.875 1.000 3.670 0 0 High-Balance 7/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate B 4.125 0.500 3.755 0 0 High-Balance 7/1 30-Year Adjustable Rate C 4.375 0.000 3.841 0 0 3/1 30-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate A 2 4.875 1.000 3.719 1 0 3/1 30-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate B 5.000 0.500 3.708 1 0 3/1 30-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate C 5.125 0.000 3.704 1 0 -- 3/1 40-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate A 2 5.250 1.000 3.733 1 0 3/1 40-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate B 5.375 0.500 3.727 1 0 3/1 40-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate C 5.500 0.000 3.725 1 0 -- 5/1 30-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate A 3 4.375 1.000 3.791 1 0 5/1 30-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate B 4.500 0.500 3.803 1 0 5/1 30-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate C 4.625 0.000 3.814 1 0 5/1 40-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate A 2 5.000 1.000 3.922 1 0 5/1 40-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate B 5.125 0.500 3.925 1 0 5/1 40-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate C 5.250 0.000 3.936 1 0 -- 7/1 30-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate A 3 4.950 1.000 4.261 1 0 7/1 30-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate B 5.075 0.500 4.286 1 0 7/1 30-Year Jumbo Adjustable Rate C 5.200 0.000 4.311 1 0 2/2 ARM 30-Year Jumbo (Purchase only) DH 6.500 0.000 4.260 1 0 -- 30 Due in 7 Fixed Rate JUMBO Balloon A 6.375 1.000 6.613 1 0 30 Due in 7 Fixed Rate JUMBO Balloon B 6.500 0.500 6.625 1 0 40 due in 7 Fixed Rate offer1 5.250 0.000 5.374 0 0 1 40 Due in 7 Fixed Rate JUMBO Balloon offer2 6.500 0.000 6.625 1 0 1 Interest Only HELOC A To 80% LTV 3.250 0 1 Home Equity Loan - 7Yrs A Up to $100,000.00 Up to 75% LTV 6.000 6.000 0 2 Home Equity Loan - 7Yrs A $100,000.01 - $250,000.00 Up to 75% LTV 6.00 6.153 0 2 Home Equity Loan - 7Yrs A Up to $100,000.00 Up to 80% LTV 6.250 6.250 0 2 Home Equity Loan - 7Yrs A $100,000.01 - $250,000.00 Up to 80% LTV 6.25 6.403 0 2 Home Equity Loan - 7Yrs B $100,000.01 - $250,000.00 Up to 90% LTV 6.99 7.145 0 2 Home Equity Loan - 10,15Yrs C $5,000-$250,000.00 To 75% LTV 6.50 6.612 0 2 Home Equity Loan - 10,15Yrs C $5,000-$250,000.00 To 80% LTV 6.75 6.863 0 2 Home Equity Loan - 10,15Yrs D $5,000-$250,000.00 Up to 90% LTV 7.50 7.614 0 2 Home Equity Loan - 20Yrs E $5,000-$250,000.00 To 75% LTV 7.50 7.566 0 2 Home Equity Loan - 20Yrs E $5,000-$250,000.00 To 80% LTV 7.75 7.817 0 2 Home Equity Loan - 20Yrs F $5,000-$250,000.00 Up to 90% LTV 8.50 8.569 0 2 Equity Edge $5,000-$25,000.00 Up to 125% LTV 12.00 12.188 Current Index 0.350 Prime Index 3.250 03/26/2010

  • My rhythm game runs choppy even with high frame rate

    - by felipedrl
    I'm coding a rhythm game and the game runs smoothly with uncapped fps. But when I try to cap it around 60 the game updates in little chunks, like hiccups, as if it was skipping frames or at a very low frame rate. The reason I need to cap frame rate is because in some computers I tested, the fps varies a lot (from ~80 - ~250 fps) and those drops are noticeable and degrade response time. Since this is a rhythm game this is very important. This issue is driving me crazy. I've spent a few weeks already on it and still can't figure out the problem. I hope someone more experienced than me could shed some light on it. I'll try to put here all the hints I've tried along with two pseudo codes for game loops I tried, so I apologize if this post gets too lengthy. 1st GameLoop: const uint UPDATE_SKIP = 1000 / 60; uint nextGameTick = SDL_GetTicks(); while(isNotDone) { // only false when a QUIT event is generated! if (processEvents()) { if (SDL_GetTicks() > nextGameTick) { update(UPDATE_SKIP); render(); nextGameTick += UPDATE_SKIP; } } } 2nd Game Loop: const uint UPDATE_SKIP = 1000 / 60; while (isNotDone) { LARGE_INTEGER startTime; QueryPerformanceCounter(&startTime); // process events will return false in case of a QUIT event processed if (processEvents()) { update(frameTime); render(); } LARGE_INTEGER endTime; do { QueryPerformanceCounter(&endTime); frameTime = static_cast<uint>((endTime.QuadPart - startTime.QuadPart) * 1000.0 / frequency.QuadPart); } while (frameTime < UPDATE_SKIP); } [1] At first I thought it was a timer resolution problem. I was using SDL_GetTicks, but even when I switched to QueryPerformanceCounter, supposedly less granular, I saw no difference. [2] Then I thought it could be due to a rounding error in my position computation and since game updates are smaller in high FPS that would be less noticeable. Indeed there is an small error, but from my tests I realized that it is not enough to produce the position jumps I'm getting. Also, another intriguing factor is that if I enable vsync I'll get smooth updates @60fps regardless frame cap code. So why not rely on vsync? Because some computers can force a disable on gfx card config. [3] I started printing the maximum and minimum frame time measured in 1sec span, in the hope that every a few frames one would take a long time but still not enough to drop my fps computation. It turns out that, with frame cap code I always get frame times in the range of [16, 18]ms, and still, the game "does not moves like jagger". [4] My process' priority is set to HIGH (Windows doesn't allow me to set REALTIME for some reason). As far as I know there is only one thread running along with the game (a sound callback, which I really don't have access to it). I'm using AudiereLib. I then disabled Audiere by removing it from the project and still got the issue. Maybe there are some others threads running and one of them is taking too long to come back right in between when I measured frame times, I don't know. Is there a way to know which threads are attached to my process? [5] There are some dynamic data being created during game run. But It is a little bit hard to remove it to test. Maybe I'll have to try harder this one. Well, as I told you I really don't know what to try next. Anything, I mean, anything would be of great help. What bugs me more is why at 60fps & vsync enabled I get an smooth update and at 60fps & no vsync I don't. Is there a way to implement software vsync? I mean, query display sync info? Thanks in advance. I appreciate the ones that got this far and yet again I apologize for the long post. Best Regards from a fellow coder.

  • FFmpeg extract clip - stream frame rate differs from container frame rate (x264, aac)

    - by fideli
    Summary H.264 video seems to have a really high frame rate that requires a scaling factor to the applied to the duration of video that I'm trying to extract (900x lower). Body I'm trying to extract a clip from a movie that I have in MP4 format (created using Handbrake). After trying mencoder and VLC, I decided to give FFmpeg a shot since it was the least troublesome when it came to copying the codecs. That is, compared to mencoder and VLC, the resulting file was still playable in QuickTime (I know about Perian, etc, I'm just trying to learn how all this works). Anyway, my command was as follows: ffmpeg -ss 01:15:51 -t 00:05:59 -i outofsight.mp4 \ -acodec copy -vcodec copy clip.mp4 During the copy, The following comes up: Seems stream 0 codec frame rate differs from container frame rate: 45000.00 (45000/1) -> 25.00 (25/1) Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from outofsight.mp4': Duration: 01:57:42.10, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 830 kb/s Stream #0.0(und): Video: h264, yuv420p, 720x384, 25 tbr, 22500 tbn, 45k tbc Stream #0.1(eng): Audio: aac, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16 Output #0, mp4, to 'out.mp4': Stream #0.0(und): Video: libx264, yuv420p, 720x384, q=2-31, 90k tbn, 22500 tbc Stream #0.1(eng): Audio: libfaac, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16 Stream mapping: Stream #0.0 -> #0.0 Stream #0.1 -> #0.1 Press [q] to stop encoding frame= 2591 fps=2349 q=-1.0 size= 8144kB time=101.60 bitrate= 656.7kbits/s … Instead of a 5:59 duration clip, I get the entire rest of the movie. So, to test this, I ran the ffmpeg command with -t 00:00:01. What I got was exactly a 15:00 minute clip. So I did some black box engineering and decided to scale my -t option by calculating what value to enter given that 1 second was interpreted as 900 s. For my desired 359 s clip, I calculated 0.399 s and so my ffmpeg command became: ffmpeg -ss 01:15.51 -t 00:00:00.399 -i outofsight.mp4 \ -acodec copy -vcodec copy clip.mp4 This works, but I have no idea why the duration is scaled by 900. Investigating further, each ffmpeg run has the line: Seems stream 0 codec frame rate differs from container frame rate: 45000.00 (45000/1) -> 25.00 (25/1) 45000/25 = 1800. Must be a relation somewhere. Somehow, the obscenely high frame rate is causing issues with the timing. How is that frame rate so high? The best part about this is that the resulting clip.mp4 has the exact same feature (due to the copied video codec), and taking further clips from this needs the same scaling for the -t duration option. Therefore, I've made it available for anyone willing to check this out.

  • Rate-Limit affects All clients or single IP?

    - by Asad Moeen
    Well up-til now I've considered iptables rate-limit commands with the "recent" module to work for each IP Address. For example rate-limit rule of 20k/s will trigger only if a single IP exceeds 20k/s rate and not if 4 different IPs exceed 5k/s rate. Please correct me if I considered this wrong as I've only used these rules for TCP/ UDP. But today I tried similar rules for ICMP and applied 4/s Input/Output. But then on trying to ping-test from just-ping.com I could see packet loss on almost all IP Addresses. How could that happen because if it worked for each IP Address then it wouldn't be triggering the rule because I believe each IP from just-ping has a rate of probably 1/s. I still think the first one is true because if it wasn't then my GameServer would block everyone if the combined rate ( in case of more connected players ) increased the threshold. This hasn't happened up til now so the ICMP thing really confused me. Thank you.

  • Make pygame's frame rate faster

    - by Smashery
    By profiling my game, I see that the vast majority of the execution time of my hobby game is between the blit and the flip calls. Currently, it's only running at around 13fps. My video card is fairly decent, so my guess is that pygame is not using it. Does anyone know of any graphics/display options I need to set in pygame to make this faster? Or is this just something that I have to live with since I've chosen pygame?

  • Regular expression for bounce email message

    - by Ryan
    I am looking for a regular expression (or other method if there is such a thing) for detecting bounce email messages. So far I have been going through our unattended mail box and adding strings that I find into a regex. I figured someone would have something that is already complete rather than me re-inventing the wheel. Here is an example of what I have so far: /reason: 550|permanent fatal errors|Error 550|Action: Failed|Mailbox does not exist|Delivery to the following recipients failed/i

  • postfix rate limiting

    - by Tourneur Henry-Nicolas
    Hi there, I did add a new slow transport to my Postfix configuration but this doesn't looks to work Messages passes correctly in the slow transport but they aren't rate limited.

  • Common practice in handling bounce message

    - by foodil
    At now I mainly create a mail account separately (with different domain name [email protected]) and i add this mail as one return path. So the bounce message will only go to that mailbox and i parse the mail message one by one to check the failure receipent and the error code, then i convert the error code to the actual error message. Finally, the error message and the fail receipent's mail are post to my system and let my system user check the bounce information. Is it a common practice? Since i am worry about the mail other from bounce message have sent to my mail box, that would be a disaster if i parse them without filter them out, but how can i filter out between bounce message and normal mail? Thank you for any kind of help.

  • Nginx Rate Limiting by Referrer?

    - by SteveEdson
    I've successfully set up rate limiting on IP addresses like so, limit_req_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=one:10m rate=1r/s; But I was wondering if its possible to do the same on referrers? For example, if a site gets placed in an iframe on a third party site, which generates too much traffic to handle. I can't find any nginx variables for the referrer anywhere. Is this possible? Or can the solution be achieved in a different way? Thanks.
