## **Key Metrics**

#### **Average Time**

The mean active time per visit across the selected date range and sites. This helps measure general user engagement across the site.

#### **Exit Before 30s**

The share of page visits that ended within the first 30 seconds after landing on that page (Bounce Rate). This helps identify short-lived or low-engagement sessions, often caused by unmet expectations, slow load times, or irrelevant content.

**Note:** Each visit/session is counted independently. Ultra-short visits (<2 seconds) are excluded to reduce noise
