Dwell time measures how long visitors stay on a page after clicking through from search results before returning to the SERP. Unlike session duration, this specific engagement metric helps search engines evaluate content relevance and quality. Longer dwell times generally signal that content successfully answered the user’s query, potentially influencing rankings positively. Improving dwell time involves creating comprehensive, engaging content with clear structure, supportive media, and internal links to encourage deeper site exploration.
