Can they intentionally increase the bounce rate and why?

Question

Search Engine Optimization

Recently there has been a strange activity on the site - 50 - 100 people come in for the same search query, and within 10 minutes. Accordingly, they immediately go out and arrange failures at 90%. What could it be? Can this be lowered in the search results?

Answer 1

Surely competitors are spinning.
It can be very dangerous: the filter arrives from Yandex with a high degree of probability.
Write to the Yandex search support service, explain the situation, ask what to do. They will answer you that nothing, the algorithms themselves recognize it. But in the case of a further filter, you will have something to appeal to the conscience of support: sometimes it helps.

Answer 2

They may be trying to kick you out of the search results (or downgrade) by lowering behavioral factors. I highly doubt their success.

Answer 3

There are special services for cheating PF, Userator, for example. With the help of such services, one of the most important ranking factors today - the user's behavioral factor - is wound up. But as practice shows - it does not work. It is simply useless for Google, and Yandex can filter for six months for this.
