Thumbs down What's your bounce rate?

"It is really hard to get a bounce rate under 20%, anything over 35% is cause for concern, 50% (above) is worrying."
Quoted from here.

I have to disagree.

For example, that page. I visited that page, and no others. That would be considered a bounce. But the reason I didn't visit any other pages is because I got the information I was looking for on that page.

Most of my visits to Wikipedia are single page visits. Wikipedia could have a high bounce rate, but that doesn't mean there is anything worrying about the site.
