Hi,

The bounce rate means the percentage of people that come to your site and leave from the same page. Lets say your site comes up on the search engine and they click it from the search results, they get to the page and hit the back button and do not go to another page on your site.

Hope this helps,
Kim

It's important to look at the bounce rate as it reveals where people leave and if you see a trend you need to look at what makes them leave so quickly.
