In verb form, it means, \u201clive in or at a specified place\u201d, while the noun form describes it as \u201ca slight regular pause in the motion of a machine\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In SEO we can\u2019t use both these definition as they are which is why we are going to focus more on the synonymous side of things as we try to grasp the concept of dwell time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The SEO community has used this phrase for a while and you probably might not be hearing it for the first time if keep up with the latest developments in the community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Duane Forrester from Bing has referenced to dwell time before saying:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u201cWhile it may feel like you\u2019ve poured your heart and soul into creating the content on the website, quality is in the eye of the visitor, and short page dwell times can indicate the content is not capturing the visitor\u2019s interest. \u2026 If your content does not encourage them to remain with you, they will leave. The search engines can get a sense of this by watching the dwell time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">While it can be difficult to understand the logical and algorithmic concepts behind the dwell time, but once you do, it starts to make much more sense and you immediately recognize why it is so important in determining searcher satisfaction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">What Is Dwell Time?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Simply put, Dwell time is the length of the time a visitor spends on a particular webpage once they have clicked on the link in SERP page. Then they click back to the SERP. The last part is important.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">You already have done this a lot of times. Dwell time is that brief moment when you reach a webpage from SERP to stay on the page to evaluate its quality. Either the page provided you with the answer you were looking for instantly or it was such a failure that you hit the back button immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The value of this metric to search engines is so obvious. The more time a visitor spends on the webpage consuming the content, the higher the probability that the content on the page satisfies his needs as well as engages him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">We know it is a generalization to a great extent but in the broadest sense, it seems to be a valid reason to pay attention to the dwell time. Also, the vice versa of the same holds, the less time spent on a webpage, the less satisfied the visitor is.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">But for facts and figures, such as looking up for the weather, the shorter dwell time means entire satisfaction, which is why it is trickier to work with this metric.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">So it can be deduced that this is a metric that\u2019s not easy to apply to a broad application of a concept but can be used for ranking at some level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">How important is dwell time for ranking webpages is a relative and must be considered with a lot of other factors. This is why you must not chase the dwell time as it is not the constructive use of your time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, you must focus on making broader improvements on your website so that you are easily able to increase user engagement will be worthy of your time. Focus on such factors and as a result, the dwell time will inherently increase.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Know what Dwell Time is not\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">On the internet, there is such an enormous amount of misinformation about dwell time, then it often leaves you confused, lost or worse, misguided.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Therefore, before we go any deeper, it is important for you to know what dwell time is not.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Dwell Time is not the same as Bounce Rate<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A bounce happens when a reader only visits one page on your site and then leaves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The bounce rate hence is the percentage of all the single-page sessions divided why all the sessions for your website.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">All the visitors who bounce, not necessarily come from the SERP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Dwell Time is not the Average Time on a page\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Some people also use dwell time interchangeably with the average time on a webpage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">But they are not the same. The average time, well, is the time someone spends on your website on average. That doesn\u2019t mean the person reached the page via SERP, he might have come through social media, email or some other source.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Dwell Time is not Session Duration<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The session duration is not dwell time as well. It is how much time someone spent on your site in one session.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">As we mentioned dwell time has a requirement of the searcher again ending up on the SERP, but if a session didn\u2019t begin with a search, it is highly unlike to end with one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Dwell Time and Click-Through Rate are also not the same\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The organic search click-through rate is the percentage of searchers who clicked on the link to your webpage out of the total number of users who saw your link in the SERP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It is often mistaken as the dwell time but it must not be. Dwell time is only about what happens after the click and has nothing to do with what percentage of searchers click.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Dwell Time is also not the RankBrain<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This is probably the biggest misconception among people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">We have already <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seoeaze.com\/blog\/google-rank-brain\/\"><strong>covered RankBrain in detail <\/strong><\/a><\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In simply terms, RankBrain uses the historical data from your older searches to predict the previously unseen queries. It is an AI algorithm that gathers the user\u2019s search result interaction data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">That\u2019s just opposite to what dwell time is.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">How can you make use of Dwell Time?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">First, you need to realize that there is no one improvement that can positively impact dwell time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">But still, if we have to advise you to focus on one factor, that would improve the overall experience user experience and useful content delivery on your web pages.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Don\u2019t engage in anything that your users don\u2019t like. It includes popups, auto-roll videos, giant header images, too many ads between content and so forth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Make sure that it is easy and obvious to find the information from your content when visitors see your web pages.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Search engines always keep reminding webmasters of \u201cabove the fold\u201d content and keeping it clean. All of this to keep the user\u2019s experience at the highest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The search engines are aware that if a visitor is landing on a webpage through them to almost immediately come back to the SERP, he will blame the search engine for the poor experience. And if the pattern repeats itself several times, it simply builds frustration among searchers. The search engines will do everything to avoid such an experience<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Takeaway<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Now that you understand the whole concept of Dwell Time we would like to close with a pretty self-explanatory statement:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Don\u2019t Dwell on Dwell Time\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Essentially, dwell time is one of the metrics you must be aware of but it is not something you can act on particularly. If you are already taking all measures to keep user experience and engagement high, you will have no problem improving the dwell time as a side effect.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Fix all the common problems such as mobile-friendliness, slow page loads, high bounce rate and poor user experience.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dwell time, albeit one of the important metrics that get referenced in a lot of articles, social media posts and PowerPoint presentations, yet a large&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":982,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"no","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[102,24],"class_list":["post-981","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-seo","tag-dwell-time","tag-seo"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What is Dwell Time and why it is important for SEO?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Dwell time seems to have many definitions and rumors going on in the SEO community.
