Bring Back Time Spent Per Visit for total site

I got asked by our CEO: How is average time on site trending? Up, down, the same? I have no easy way to answer this in Version 15 without running the report for each month and adding the numbers to an XLS and making my own graph. Lame.

@ericmatisoff - Visits (Report Specific) metric doesn't appear to help matters, there's still no site average, just the breakdown (reporting the number of visits per time segment).

@tkochersperger - We've just seen release of SC v14.9 and the site average appears to be still available through the method WJungHearst suggests above.

Since they're obviously calculating this anyway, it would be nice to have it available as a regular report.

Doesn't this exist in Site Metrics > Time Spent Per Visit?  Just add "Visits (Report-Specific)" as your metric.

I would like this metric back as well.  It'd be useful to be able to see this as a trended metric.

Per WJungHearst recommendation:

with the rollout of v14.7, this solution is now gone too! 

Please bring this metric back.

Whilst you can get to average time spent  by the ways mentioned above,  you can't actually get a trended report for average time spent per visit (only  top 5 or selected 5 time ranges) so you cant show  he trend in dashboards at all.

This would be useful, even though time spent is not really true ( given time spent on last page of a visit can't actually be measured)

There's actually a way to get this in Omniture Suite.

Site Metrics > Page Views.

Scroll down to the bottom.

Under Related Reports - Time Spent per Visit. 

Not sure how this report varies from the "regular" Time Spent per Visit, but the actual average number appears.  Would be nice if this appeared on all the Time Spent per Visit reports.

I miss this. I have to use dashboards or ExcelClient datablocks for it now. I'd also like to see it as an option in DataWarehouse. 

Please include in Report Builder, too!
