quick tip to reduce bounce rate :)

5 replies
Hey guys,

If you're using a related posts plugin on wordpress, I think these few things can help reduce your bounce rate pretty dramatically. The first one is pretty common, but the other I got just experimenting.

1. Use the "reduce bounce rate" plugin if you're using GA for stats

2. Instead of having something like "related posts", directly tell the reader to stay and read some more posts. I've got "Don't go anywhere. Read some more posts!" and it reduced my bounce rate by 6%. Have verified this with changing it back and forth.

Thanks for reading

    Is that a plugin that pops up when the visitor tries to leave your page?

    Holding users to the blog is a challenging task. I think that Content is still have a major factor. If you have a Good content then users will automatically stay on your site or may be subscribe your blog. Secondly Decrease your blog loading speed. Users don't stay or look for a site who loads very slowly.

    The the first reply, no this isn't an exit pop-up. Related posts just displays other posts under the article they read.

    No worries

    Quality content should be your first and foremost. Anything other than that...you're really just trying to keep visitors at a page they have no interest in.
