class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bounce rate, defined in percentage, is the number of users or visitors who leave a page without taking a specific action, such as finalizing a purchase, downloading a file, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before moving ahead, let\u2019s make it clear that it is impossible to have a 0% bounce rate unless you have very few visitors. Not everyone who lands on your webpage or website will be interested in what you have to offer. However, there are ways you can reduce bounce rate, and in this post we will show you some of them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Is_It_Important_to_Control_Bounce_Rate\"><\/span><b>Why Is It Important to Control Bounce Rate?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you know what bounce rate means, let&#8217;s talk about its importance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember that users who land on your site are likely to be interested in what you have to offer. But, if they bounced off right away then it means you failed to keep them engaged. It\u2019s a loss because the user may go to someone else and make them money.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plus, it\u2019s also a ranking factor according to <\/span><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/backlinko.com\/search-engine-ranking\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">this Backlinko report<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Pages that\u00a0 have a low bounce rate are more likely to rank on the first page of Google.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, a very <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.navthemes.com\/redirect-404-pages-reduce-bounce-rate\/\">high bounce rate<\/a> indicates there\u2019s something wrong with your site.

Ecommerce sites can have a rate as low as 20 percent. Moreover, it also largely depends on where your traffic is coming from.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Users who come to your site via e-mail marketing, for example, tend to stay on it longer than users who land on your site via organic search.

Users love videos. Most people prefer to watch and not read.

They must be relevant and of very high quality. For example, a page about \u2018how to cook rice\u2019 can contain a video explaining the process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can upload the videos to your server, or host it on YouTube (for free). However, make sure to avoid auto-play as it can be distracting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While videos are useful, not everyone who lands on your page might be interested in watching a video.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They might be listening to a song or file, which can get disrupted if the video on your page begins to play automatically. If you wish to play the video on its own then at least make sure it\u2019s mute.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Make_Sure_to_Add_a_Search_Bar\"><\/span><b>#2 Make Sure to Add a Search Bar<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The search bar helps users find what they need. Make sure to keep the search button wide and clearly visible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to a <\/span><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nngroup.com\/articles\/top-ten-guidelines-for-homepage-usability\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">report published by Jakob Nielson<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the search box should be at least 27-character wide. This is very important because the average bar is only 18-character wide.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not many people pay attention to this fact because it is possible to type longer queries even in short boxes, but the problem is that users will not be able to see the entire query due to the size of the bar. This can make reviewing or editing the query very difficult.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A very good option to solve this problem is to introduce a dynamic search bar that gets bigger automatically as one starts to type in the box.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another good option is to make the bar sticky and fix it at the top so users can easily find it. There\u2019s no point in having a search bar if nobody can see it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Do_Not_Neglect_Loading_Speeds\"><\/span><b>#3 Do Not Neglect Loading Speeds<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today\u2019s users are impatient.

It increases conversion, educates visitors, and improves the bounce rate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have already talked about using images, videos in your content, and following smart formatting to ensure your pages are easy to skim through. However, that\u2019s not all that matters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Above all, your content must be informative and relevant. Do not create pages for the sake of it.

The best way to solve this problem is to see what keywords your pages are ranking for and to make changes to your content accordingly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to this, consider adding a jumpable table of contents so that visitors can quickly find what they need.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3924\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3924\" style=\"width: 1999px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3924 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/adoric.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/jumpable-table-of-contents.jpg\" alt=\"jumpable table of contents\" width=\"1999\" height=\"1513\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1999px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1999\/1513;\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3924\" src=\"https:\/\/adoric.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/jumpable-table-of-contents.jpg\" alt=\"jumpable table of contents\" width=\"1999\" height=\"1513\" \/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3924\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">jumpable table of contents<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This will decrease bounce rate and keep users glued to your page.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Do_Not_Neglect_Internal_Links\"><\/span><b>#10 Do Not Neglect Internal Links<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to enjoy a low bounce rate? Make sure to use a clever internal linking strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Internal links are effective in keeping people on your page and pushing them to check more of your content.

Otherwise, the page will end up looking messy and unprofessional.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best strategy is to link to pages that are relevant to your content. For example, an article on SEO should only link to pages that discuss or explain SEO and not pages that explain other topics.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"11_Remove_Ads_That_Are_Intrusive\"><\/span><b>#11 Remove Ads That Are Intrusive<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We like ads, they help websites earn money and can be used to promote specific products and services. But, the fact remains that ads can be intrusive. This is why a large number of internet users use ad blockers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visitors want to be on a site that offers a non-intrusive experience. We suggest that you use native ads as they do not affect the browsing experience and are quite effective as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do not place ads where visitors are more likely to search for information, i.e.: search box, content area, and menu bar.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"12_Use_Exit_Popups\"><\/span><b>#12 Use Exit Popups<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A good way to increase engagement is to use exit-intent popups.
