11 Techniques for Lowering the Bounce Rate on Your Blog

In today’s lesson I want to talk about a statistic or metric that is in Google analytics that I see bloggers talking about a lot - that of ‘bounce rate’.







Just today I was asked twice about bounce rate and how to get it lower.



So in this episode, I thought I’d tackle the topic and will talk briefly about what bounce rate is, about why I see many bloggers not really interpreting it in a helpful way and  for the bulk of the episode I want to give you 11 things you can do to lower bounce rate on your blog. Lastly I’m going to suggest some homework that you might want to do!



So if you if you’re not sure what bounce rate is or you look at the stat in your Google Analytics and want to know how to get it lower - this episode is just for you!



Note: you can find this episode (PB179) here on iTunes if you'd like to listen to it there.
