Dwell Time
How long a user stays on a page before returning to search results.
Dwell time is observed by search engines (not directly available to site owners) and signals content satisfaction. Pages with low dwell time and quick returns to SERPs indicate poor relevance. Increasing dwell time involves matching intent, structuring content for skimming, embedding relevant media and using clear progression cues throughout the page.
