Low Pageviews per Session

Pages with low pageviews per session (less than 1.5)

Priority: Low

Impact: Negative

What issues it may cause​

Organic landing pages that generate a low number of pageviews per session are more likely to result in a bounce back to search engine's results pages which can be a signal to the search engine that the page is a poor quality result. This may degrade the rankings for the specific page and potentially all pages on the site.

How do you fix it​

The content of the pages should be reviewed and improved to satisfy any search queries the pages rank for.

Related links to other pages could be added to increase the chances a user will view another page, and reducing the chances of a bounce or exit from the page.

What is the positive impact​

Visitors who arrive from search results will have a better user-experience and a lower rate of bounce back to search results. This may positively impact the rankings and increase traffic.

How to fetch the data for this report template​

  getCrawl(id: $crawlId) {
    reportsByCode(
      input: {
        reportTypeCodes: Basic
        reportTemplateCodes: [$reportTemplateCode]
      }
    ) {
      rows {
        nodes {
          ... on CrawlUrls {
            pageTitle
            url
