What is the Average Pogo Rate?
-
I've created a custom Google Segment which you can find here.
Segment Settings:
- Organic Traffic
- Sessions with 1 visit.
- Sessions with less than 15 seconds time on site.
To calculate Pogo rate then I looked at Pogo vs. Total organic and got the percentage of Pogo sessions.
I tested a group of 20 sites and got 53% on average with a high of 87% and a low of 33%.
What do you get? Any interesting insights?

i would love to see an analysis of the relationship between bounce rate and this new pogo rate:)
-
Yeah in no way is this a perfect equation, because the only way to get that is to have access to Google's database but I think it can serve as a good starting point. Even if we took SEO out of the equation, if 50% of your organic visitors are bouncing within 15 seconds, that doesn't sound good.

I have some high some low i think the key is to view it how we view bounce rates as a benchmark to improve - but the math is a bit wrong since you are making an assumption people are going to another search result so it isnt a true pogo but i guess its better then no metric.

Increase conversion rate to buy
I am trying to understand why my women fashion site has a very low conversion, basically zero apart from some occasional sales (last one a few months ago) There is a lack of organic traffic the to shop subdomain, but what worries me is that (email/social media) campaigns to existing clients who happily buy repeatedly from our brick and mortar store do not generate results, despite using promotion codes etc. Before investing heavily in PPC campaigns etc, I'd like to improve conversion. Any advice on what can be improved ? PD: link can be found in my profile.

Bounce rate vs main domain and subdomain
So there is a website www.domainname.com that is based on wordpress. Basically this site has 8-10 pages but it is not a blog. And it has a subdomain mystore.domainname.com which is based on magento. While developing the site the circumstances were such that we had to use a subdomain for ecommerce based on magento. So the wp site is ranking and people are landing on that site. It makes sense when it has a bounce rate of around 72% because people are actually going to the subdomain ( store ) after they land on the wp site. Because they are actually looking to buy. My question is will this bounce rate affect in ranking of the wp site ? Because for now only the wp site is ranking for most of the terms. Should i consider removing the wp site and have the whole site based on magento ? I appreciate any kind of feedback and suggestion 🙂

Question about conversion rate in ppc
Hi guys, Im managing the campaigns in the company that im working and so far i think that the results are o.k more or less. The problem is how can i really know if it is o.k ?
Conversion Rate Optimization | | WayneRooney
I really don’t have any data to compare to… For example, this is campaign from the insurance niche from the uk : Clicks – 132
Impr – 6,958
CTR- 1.90%
Conversion – 20 (Not inducing the one that calls the office)
Conversion rate – 16%
Total cost – 704£ How can i know by these number that the campaign is working ? Same here (T-shirts campaign for the Spanish market): Clicks – 1,219
Impr – 26,177
CTR- 4.66%
Conversion – 56
Conversion rate – 4.5%
Total cost – 493€ Probably you will say, check how much you spend and how much you got back ?
This is also a problem for me. I can see the numbers of the conversion but because we are not eCommerce so i cant really know the total income. Do you know if there’s is a way that each for quote that coming to our system
so i will know where it came from ? Like a comment in the url or something ? I think that 90% of our income/quotes comes from the organic as we are ranking very high in Google so its a bit mixed in the system. Any feedback or tips here on this will be very welcome…0 -
Please Settle a Bounce Rate Debate
Here's the Question: If a person clicks a PPC ad and hits the landing page, and the landing page has a form to fill out embedded in it without having to click, does that count as a bounce if the person leaves the page immediately after filling out and submitting the form or does the submission negate the bounce tally? Hope this makes sense and thanks in advance.
