When you think about the concept of "content is king" and the saying "write for visitors, not for engines" - it all adds up to the same thing. Create good content and a sticky site, so visitors will bookmark it, link to you and stay longer - then traffic and conversions will increase.
According to this article maybe your rankings will even go up too!
Interesting... what do you think???

Google Algorithm Update – Is Bounce Rate a Ranking Signal?
User Bounces in the Post-Panda World
Forget for a moment everything you think you know about Google and how they rank content. Put yourself in the role of a person who is tasked with ranking results.

Nor do they refine their query. Which page is most likely the one that has the better content for that particular search?
