Bounce rate is the number of visitors that source a website through a search engine but leave without navigating to any other webpage and “bounce” back to the search engine to find another resource. A high bounce rate will affect search engine position because it implies to the search engines that the website is not relevant to the searched terms that people are locating the website through and will consequently penalize the website which will ultimately be reflected in its search engine position.
