“Dwell time” is one of the easier-confused terms in the SEO industry. When discussing “dwell time”, people often seem to be talking about “Time-on-page” instead.
Dwell time is quite an old term that was coined (I believe) by @DuaneForrester in his old article “How to Build Quality #Content”
– By Ann Smarty @seosmarty
