I wonder if not using google analytics and toolbar would help a site outperform another? (if you are comparing apples to apples, similar sites)

So much of technical stuff goes on behind the scences that we are not aware of. How many things do we have to consider just to build a site and drive traffic to it?Thanks for the info. Learning alot here. Although its an interesting info about the bounce rate, it was somehow another thing to think about.

You make some very valid points here – I do agree that it needs some “paving” :D

The only thing I could think of was search engine traffic (without analytics installed):

1) Visitor clicks on your blog through an article, then does another search by either pushing back or typing it in a toolbar.

2) Visitor clicks on your blog article and then clicks on another website with the script installed, checking the referrer of the site.

I can definitely see Bounce Rate as being a more important metric for Google, the challenge for them, however, is knowing what every website's bounce rate is.Without them adding code to your web pages (like Google Analytics), they'll need a way to record that data. For example, how would they know the bounce rate of my family photo's blog which contains no statistical javascript or anything?In addition to that, they'd need to know which visits were my own visits to my own website. A guy like me who likes to toy with my blog is constantly clicking on links on my own site which could give false readings of bounce rate unless my IP address was filtered.But how would Google know which IP address every website owner is coming from?I agree, bounce rate might play a more important role in the serps, but there are definitely some bumps in the road which need to be addressed I believe. .-= John Hoff - WP Blog´s last blog ..<a href="http://wpbloghost.com/blog/wordpress-admin-ssl/">Increase Your WordPress Blog’s Security By Running It Through SSL</a> =-. Hey Brad. I can definitely see Bounce Rate as being a more important metric for Google, the challenge for them, however, is knowing what every website’s bounce rate is.

Without them adding code to your web pages (like Google Analytics), they’ll need a way to record that data. For example, how would they know the bounce rate of my family photo’s blog which contains no statistical javascript or anything?

In addition to that, they’d need to know which visits were my own visits to my own website. A guy like me who likes to toy with my blog is constantly clicking on links on my own site which could give false readings of bounce rate unless my IP address was filtered.

But how would Google know which IP address every website owner is coming from?

I agree, bounce rate might play a more important role in the serps, but there are definitely some bumps in the road which need to be addressed I believe.
