Hvad er Bounce Rate?
Hurtig definition
Bounce rate er procentdelen af besøgende, der forlader et websted efter at have set kun én side uden at klikke videre eller interagere.
Bounce rate measures the percentage of single-page sessions on your website. A "bounce" occurs when a visitor lands on a page and leaves without any further interaction. They don't click a link, fill out a form, or navigate to another page. They simply arrive and leave.
In Google Analytics 4, the concept has evolved. Instead of tracking bounces, GA4 uses "engagement rate," which measures the percentage of sessions that lasted more than 10 seconds, had a conversion event, or had 2+ page views. A low engagement rate is essentially the same as a high bounce rate.
Bounce rate interpretation depends on context. A 70% bounce rate on a blog post might be perfectly normal if visitors read the article and found what they needed. But a 70% bounce rate on a product page is concerning because those visitors should ideally add items to their cart. A 70% bounce rate on a landing page with a form suggests the page isn't compelling enough to convert.
Average bounce rates vary by page type. Landing pages typically see 60-90%, blogs 65-90%, service pages 10-30%, and e-commerce product pages 20-45%. Rather than comparing to industry averages, track your own trends over time and look for pages that significantly underperform your site's average.
Hvorfor det er vigtigt
A high bounce rate often indicates a mismatch between what visitors expect and what they find. They clicked a search result or ad expecting one thing and got something different, so they left. This wastes your marketing budget and loses potential customers.
Reducing bounce rate means more visitors are engaging with your site, viewing more pages, and moving toward conversion. Each percentage point reduction in bounce rate represents real people who are now exploring your site instead of leaving.
