A page with a low bounce rate and a long dwell time is indicative of a quality web page. We have some of our key pages down at around 25%, but others are in the 60-80% range. We have found that links such as "related items" and adding in more pictures as well as sharpening up the text on a page can all reduce bounce rates. It's hard work and needs a key attention to detail, but you do see the results coming through.
