Entry pages will tell you how and where people enter your website – but more importantly, why they visit your site in the first place. If the most common entry page, besides the home page, is the “Careers” page, it is likely that a significant number of visitors are coming to your website because they are looking for job opportunities. So, whether intended or not, your website serves, to a large extent, as a recruiting platform.This is one of the benefits of looking at landing pages: you quickly find out if visitor behavior differs from the patterns you expected or wanted.

Note that bounce rate is rarely a useful metric on its own because it is very ambiguous. There is no universal definition of “good” or “bad” bounce rates. Bounce rates should be assessed on a case-by-case basis, as their importance will depend on the purpose of the page in question: is it intended to provide visitors with specific information quickly so that they can move on immediately, or do you want visitors to stay and engage with more of your content?
