Another high bounce rate
-
Hi there,
One of my top landing pages has an 81% bounce rate.

My first thoughts are purely bad IA and usability, but i know there must be loads of other things people might identify.
Thanks in advance,
Ben

Th page is OK but a little bland and with no real fucus. However I agree that if you look at the entry keywords with the high bounce rate all will become clear. I suspect you are ranking for a term that is not so relevant to your topic...
-
My first impression is that I have no idea what the page is about. But mainly, there is no guidance in what I should do next. There is no call to action.
So what is the main purpose of this page?
-
First, a bad bounce rate doesn't always mean a bad page. There are several reasons one might see a high bounce rate as a good or neutral thing.
With regards to your page, however, I'm not sure. I'd say look at what your entrance keywords are. Which entrance keywords are triggering the bounce? I'll bet if you look at that data, it'll make more sense. 9 times out of 10 bouncing people are landing on a page that doesn't have content to fit their query.
-
Are you ranking for any irrelevant terms or getting a lot of referrals from a site that drives traffic from people who wouldn't be interested?
I also have to say, I read almost all the copy above the fold and I'm still not exactly clear about what you're offering. When i went to the homepage, I figured it out, but the page in question is actually about what you do, that that could be a problem.

Bounce rate and Chrome
My client had a large spike in their bounce rate at the end of June, 2017. After spending far too long looking around Google Analytics I discovered that the bounce rate increased 5x when version 59.0.3071.104 of Google Chrome appeared on the scene. Version 59.0.3071.102 and older had a bounce rate of about 13%. Version 59.0.3071.104 increased to 65%. Each subsequent version is about the same.FireFox, Safari and the rest are showing no significant changes.Any idea what is happening here?Many thanks.

In Google Analytic Experiment I want to Judge Performance of Page Along with Pageviews, Bounces, Transaction etc
Hi All, For my ecommerce site for mobile site category page I have redesign the page in 2 different ways so one original page and 2 new designs. Now I want to do A/B testing with google experiment. I want to measure performance of page via pageviews, bounce rate, exit rate, conversion rate, add to basket etc. Now in objective for this experiment I can select anyone thing either Pageviews, or bounces or transaction or goal. So my query is 1) I cannot select all objective together? 2) or for same page I have to create too many experiments by selecting each objective? 3) exit rate or add to basket objective is not in experiment list so? Thanks!

Title Tag Capitalization Impact on SERP Rankings and Click Through Rates
My company made a branding decision to use lowercase for all of our title tags. This, of course, means that our titles on SERPs are all lower case. Overwhelmingly, it seems that websites use title case. This makes me wonder if we're shooting ourselves in the foot. Does using lower case titles negatively impact our rankings and/or click through rates? Is there any data out there suggesting that title case has a better click through rate than lower case? Thanks for reading!

High Conversion. Real or Inflated?
Hi, We recently redesigned our website, cardcash.com. Since we launched we are seeing a huge spike in the e-commerce conversion rate. We went up 300% - from a 4% conversion rate to a 16% conversion rate!! The only thing that changed is our design. We think it's awesome and all but is it even possible? Is something wrong with our analytics code or are we incredibly lucky?

Bounce rates plummeted
In Google Analytics, my average bounce rates plummeted basically overnight. I went from a consistent average daily bounce rate of about 65% to an average daily bounce rate near 5%. My average number of visitors has stayed the same. I don't think there is any significant change I made to my site that may have caused this. Has anyone else had the same problem and know why it happened and how to fix it? Thanks in advance!
