…I firmly believe this is the future. How they get there, I have no idea, but the bounce rate, click rate, page views – ie: the general behaviour of a user to a site or sites found through a search term – will become the main factor in SERPS placement
Maybe, but I don’t see how new sites would get a fair shake with this. If all of these things will contribute to rankings, then how does a new site with no traffic, no rankings ever get there? Maybe google is doing something like this now, hence why sometimes new sites instantly rank strong for a few days after getting indexed, then fall off the map. Something like a test run to see how users react to the site.
