Time on page

Analytics

An analytics metric measuring how long visitors spend on a page before navigating away or closing the browser. Longer time on page often indicates engaging content, though context matters—a quick-answer FAQ page may succeed with short visits. We analyse time on page alongside bounce rate and scroll depth to understand whether content resonates and where visitors lose interest.
