   Has anyone noticed this trend since mid May and what does it mean?

      My bounce rate is actually going down, which is a good thing. A high bounce rate means readers are leaving the page without reading or after reading very little.
      
      This is what my GA report is telling me today regarding my bounce rate:
      
      We forecast Bounce Rate of 33.8% to 59.74% for Apr 18 – 24, 2022 but your actual Bounce Rate of 30.81% is lower than this range.
      
      Of course, that's for April, but today my bounce rate is down by 22.6%. I'm always pleased when the bounce rate goes down and the session duration goes up.

         High bounce rate means no interaction with the page which can also be a good thing if they get the information they need, then leave.

   For me, the bounce rate is 75.76 %.
   I'm getting a lot of views, and the majority of them are from organic sources.... But the impressions aren't as high as they should be... Maybe because there are no ads for users outside of the U. S.?
   
   It shows that I have a 20% increase in views this Tuesday compared to last Tuesday... However, the bounce rate is higher than before.

   My bounce rate is 67.41% and is about the same as it was on the 18th of May with very little variation.

      Mine is normally fairly constant, but one article might be accounting for it. I'll try narrowing down the stats to see which one is responsible.

   If the bounce right into an advertisement that is a win

      That makes sense. However, that would result in an increase in earnings, which I'm not seeing. Today my bounce rate is at 59.49%, up 42.1%. I'll have to pay attention to earnings between yesterday and today to see which way the pennies are falling.
