Bounce rate increases when people visit your site and immediately or within couple of seconds leave your website. It means your website is not worthy or up to the people expectation thus you will lose your potential clients and businesses. I think ideal time would be 30 seconds+. I suggest you see your Google Webmaster/Analytics Tool, you will get exact idea of time from there.

Bounce rate (sometimes confused with exit rate) is an Internet marketing term used in web traffic analysis. It represents the percentage of visitors who enter the site and "bounce" (leave the site) rather than continue viewing other pages within the same site.

Bounce rate is the percentage of single-page visits or visits in which the person left your site from the entrance (landing) page. Use this metric to measure visit quality - a high bounce rate generally indicates that site entrance pages aren't relevant to your visitors. The more compelling your landing pages, the more visitors will stay on your site and convert. You can minimize bounce rates by tailoring landing pages to each keyword and ad that you run. Landing pages should provide the information and services that were promised in the ad copy.

Your bounce rate is the rate of users who arrive and leave on the same page they entered on. Someone who bounces did not click anything on your site. This probably isn’t a good thing for you. There are many reasons why your bounce rate might be high and some smart things you could do to address this — making your website more profitable and effective as a business marketing tool. Not only is it smart to address bounce rate but it’s a vital part of your SEO.

Yes, Google wants unique visits not visit which has 100 % bounce rate. Bounce rate means percentage value of page visit in which visitor enters in the website and left the website in a time period.

The variation between bounce rates is the valuable metric since it will help you gauge the effectiveness of pay-per-click advertising campaigns and social media use. If your Facebook traffic sports a 76 percent bounce rate while your Google organic searches top out at 90 percent, your Facebook campaign is working well, but your website's structure and copy may benefit from a little TLC. If one of your PPC ad campaigns has a higher bounce rates than the others, kill it and riff on the ones that are working.
