Someone searches for a answer to a question, writes it on google, reads it on a web page, the answer is not long, after that leaves, not because the quality of the answer was not good, but because the answer was relevant for what that person wanted and that was all.

I think your comment brings up two great points. 1. It's important to monitor your website stats and search terms to see exactly which user groups are bouncing. 2. If users are finding information they are looking for and still bouncing, you may need to improve your website's call-to-action.

I would suppose bounce rates also vary by the type of site you have as well: e-commerce site vs. an informative site. Do you have any studies/white papers that have documented what are acceptable bounce rates?
