I often open a bunch of the results in new tabs. Which could be interpreted as I'm unhappy with the first ones I open, but I haven't even looked at them at that point.
Well sure, but i'm sure google can detect if you clicked 5 results in five tabs, or if you've clicked on one, and clicked "back" immeditaly... if a huge amount of users stay only 2-3 seconds on a specific page and then come back, that would be a red flag for me.
On the other hand, maybe some people actually like the pinterest pages in results, and i'm the weird one... who knows.
