What is a Bounce Rate?
When you are focusing on increasing your sites presence, it should always have minimal or no bounce rates. It is typically the percentage of users that visit your platform and leave without taking any action or exploring the website.
A high bounce rate means you do not have engaging or well-organised web pages to keep a visitor for longer intervals.
5
The Factors that Affect the Bounce Rate are
Loading Speed It is crucial for user experience and search engine optimisation. If your website is not loading within 3 seconds, it will increase the bounce rate and limit search engines search visibility.
Heavy Web Pages These are pages that have too many folds. This means it is harder for the users to reach the relevant content and spend too much time searching. This interferes with their experience, and they might leave the page.

Call To Actions They are very effective for eCommerce platforms only if you place them at the right place. A complex or inaccessible CTAs will occupy the platform without bringing any results.
External links It might be a useful feature only if placed at the right location. The reason is it will take the visitors to other sites and pages. As external links open in a new window, the visitors might stay there and affect your ability to gain traffic.
Complex Structure The websites structure plays a huge role in the visitors journey. Overly complicated structures may not provide the required information and consume too much time.

What is a Good or Bad Bounce Rate?
Before you start with the actual process, it is important to know the basic level of bounce rate
Higher than 80 You have a serious issue with the customer retention
Between 70 to 80 There is a problem with website performance and needs attention
Around 50 to 70 This is the average range for the website.
Around 30 to 50 It is considered as an excellent number for a digital marketing strategy
Below 20 You might have applied the right approach as this is extremely rated to achieve
So, above 70 means you have high bounce rates and have to put great effort into improving performance. When your website gains less than 30, you can pull off the limits and engage potential visitors.

How to Reduce Bounce Rates of your Platform Effectively?
1. Make the Content More Readable
The lack of readability will highly affect the customer experience on the platform. The user begins its experience only when the content is easier to scan and provides valuable information. Few tips for formatting your content

Use pointers
Add charts, images, quotes, and more media relevant to blogs
Ask questions to let the readers participate
Make the conclusion actionable
Keep headline big and bold

2. Integrate Compelling CTAs
After you have gained the traffic towards your content and engaged them with it, it is time to take action. You want each visitor to perform a certain task to generate better results. An ideal CTA should be
Prominent This means it should be above the fold area to provide easy access to the visitors.
Unique Use bold, clear, and contrasting colours
Relevant It must prompt users to take the next step
Commanding Text It should be confident to inform users about the next action
When you optimise the Call-To-Action, every element will play its role. Keep a close eye on colour combination, text, font style, and font size. Review the landing page performance by using various online tools to understand the positive and negative responses of your CTAs.

3. Internal Link Structure
This is the best method to reduce bounce rate on your platform. Internal linking provides a structure to the website by connecting the pieces of content.
It becomes effortless to enable visitors to check out more website pages. Also, now the users do not have to look around as everything is available within a few clicks. They help website crawlers to discover web pages and increase website relevancy.
Do not spam the reader with irrelevant linking, affecting your website reputation. Use tools like Yoast that helps to find related content that can be internally linked.

4. Ease of Navigation
Confusing navigation is another reason that visitors will be leaving your platform. The navigation menu on the site and CTAs are crucial elements of the website. Menus help users to know the structure of the website and help to take the next action seamlessly.
Optimal navigation will help to redirect users to important pages. It must reflect the users behaviour and make it effortless to reach the desired destination. Some tools help to view the areas of the website that gain the most interactions. Focus on the Click-Through-Rate of the website.

5. Remove Broken Links
Broken links on the website are repellent to the visitors as they will quit browsing and increase bounce rate. If your visitors cannot find the relevant information, it may create frustration and a poor experience.
You can easily find broken links with great tools online, especially if you have a big website with hundreds of pages. You might want to fix it by adding a redirection, replacing the link, or removing it from the content. Ensure that you provide a disruption-free experience and that visitors will spend a long time on the website.

6. Add a Useful 404 Page
This is essential because sometimes users land on a non-existent page, and you do not want to lose them. The 404 page provides a choice for the user to navigate to another direction before they step in bounce rate.
You might want to offer a search box that helps the users move in any direction they want. Some other things that you might consider
Home Page
Contact Us page
Previous page redirection
Alternative Page
Help
Also, improve the page by adding a bit of humour to lighten up the situation and provide the reason for leading this mistake.

It would help if you always avoided lengthy and irrelevant topics on your website when it comes to content. Content plays a higher role in engaging users for a longer period. The goal is to provide information to the visitors and give them the best solution.
