How to prevent spam visits lowering the average visit duration?
« on: 11-18-2023, 22:29:56 »
Hi,

Our competitors from India and China use bots to generate many spam visits to our website, stay for a very short time, and leave, which lowers the average visit duration of our website.

A low average visit duration will damage SEO and lower our ranking in Google.

So:

1. How to prevent this?
2. Will Google count in the stay time of Google Bots and other bots? I think these bots will also stay for a short time.
3. Will Google count in the stay time for 404, 500 and other error status codes? These error pages will also stay for a short time.

Implementing robust spam filtering mechanisms and regularly monitoring and adjusting analytics settings can help prevent spam visits from artificially lowering the average visit duration.
