One of my sites is a single page that focuses on getting the user to call a phone number.

In GA, I've set up a Goal for when visitors spend more than 1 minute on the site. I realized much later that GA doesn't trap exit events, so visitors who arrive at the site and click back won't be counted. I'd like to modify that; but that's for another question.

I've got a number of users with an Average Time on Site >0 ; and a page depth > 1. I can't figure out how --- My site contains a single page.

The number of users with Page Depth 2+ doesn't equal the number of returning visitors - otherwise I'd assume these are people who left and then typed in the url manually.

I'm at a loss. Did they just hit refresh? Did they bookmark the site and return to it? (That shouldn't count as 'time on site' though'...)

Page depth does not take into account unique pageviews, just total pageviews. So, yes, if your end user refreshes the page in any way, it'll count as a two-page visit.

If they bookmark the page and return to it a few hours later, its a new visit, and doesn't alter the previous visit's page depth.
