Fixing A Broken Blog Bounce Rate

By Dona Tennison


Launching a blog these days is not at all difficult as you do have the tools and platforms to help you; however, when you're actually running the blog, things can get difficult. When you do not really know too much, then you could think that low visitor time on site is normal. This leads to a high bounce rate and it'll make you lose on the traffic that you're already generating as it wouldn't convert. If you choose to keep reading, you will be treated to methods that will minimize your blog's bounce rate.

A long time ago web users have expected for a site to load fast, and that is something you must have. That is probably the first hurdle to overcome for your blog; so at least you do not want to worry about that. Basically, you want to minimize the file sizes for anything in your posts such as images, etc. The best approach for troubleshooting a slow blog is to be methodical and use a process of elimination.

A piece of software that tracks and records what your visitors are doing and where they are going is vital. One thing you can do is see where people are coming from, and you can see if they leave right away. What you will be able to do is tailor the sites that you get traffic from depending on the quality. There are different reasons for the behavior on different pages on your site, and that is information which is valuable.

Your blog must be enabled for comments regardless if you want to develop a good relationship with your visitors. You know how much people like to express their opinions about things, so let them do it. Besides, commenting means people have read your content post and are spending more time there with commenting. Blogs that are hugely popular all allow their visitors to leave comments. If you disallow comments, then your rapport will suffer and that will not be good for bounce rate.

As you can see, we have only touched on a couple of items, here, and there are more methods available. But keep in mind that you do not want to overload your blog and make the file sizes too heavy. There are no two ways around this because you have to try and reduce the bounce rate of your blog as much as you can. When you apply what you have learned, then you will see the positive results for your self.
