I designed a website for a friends business. I am not any kind of web developer its just a fun hobby so I am not very knowledgeable. I designed the website on the bootstrap framework and it only has one page. There are a few models for information on the website. I am thinking the bounce rate will be hurting his search ranking. These are the stats from Google Analytics.Sessions- 594  Users - 271  Pageviews- 823  Pages / Session- 1.39  Avg. Session Duration- 00:04:38  Bounce Rate- 83.00% % New Sessions- 45.29% I added this code to the analytics script on the website to try and not count a session as a bounce if the user spends more than 30 seconds on the site<script>  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)  })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');  ga('create', 'UA-69413534-1', 'auto');  ga('send', 'pageview');  SetTimeout(function(){_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Control', 'Bounce Rate', ''])},3000)</script>I am under the assumption that bounce rate is affected by the session duration and pages/session. Is the 83% bounce rate something I need to be worried about? If so how can I lower it?
Google Analytics bounce rate at 83% average sesion duration is 4:38 on one page website
