What is the best way to reduce bounce rate from Pinterest Traffic?
-
Hi,
Our bounce rate is very high on incoming traffic from Pinterest. What can we do to redirect the traffic to more than single product page and/or convert them to sign up for newsletter, etc?
Anyone know if there is an average bounce rate from Pinterest traffic?
Thanks.

Social media traffic in general tends not to convert directly to sales, because most people use social media sites for entertainment and not for shopping. Pinterest tends to have a higher shopping intent than other social sites, but still expect a low conversion rate.
There are two things you can do to improve your conversion rate: improve your leads and improve your site.
To improve the quality of your leads, try putting a price tag on your pins in Pinterest. This will tend to attract people who are actually shopping for something, instead of just browsing pretty pictures. Make it clear that the item in your picture is something you have for sale. Use buying keywords in the pin description. All these will attract people to your pins who are more likely to purchase, leading to a higher conversion rate.
As far as improving your site, for reducing bounce rate you can include a "related products" widget to your page, with pictures of other products the user may be interested in. Pinterest users are very visual, so make sure your site design looks nice.
As for improving e-mail conversion rates, don't just ask people to sign up, offer them an incentive. The exact incentive will depend on your industry, but make it something that complements whatever it is you're offering, like a free guide or tip sheet. If you can't think of anything creative, try offering a one-time 15% off coupon for signing up for your newsletter. Make the sign-up form a popup, so people can't ignore it.

Reducing Negative Impact of Webpage Login Form
Our real estate website (www.metro-manhattan.com) now requires visitors to login in if they want to search our listing database. The result is that. 9 out of 10 visitors leave without searching; they simply refuse to set up an account. I have attached images of the search bar and login form. Is there a way to increase the percentage of visitors that login? We have tried to make it as simple as possible, allowing visitors to login by Facebook, Google or by providing their email address. We do not send any verification email. We are forced to. keep this login unfortunately. But is there anything we can do to reduce the visitor bounce rate? Thanks,

Creating leads with minimal traffic
I'm working for a client who is in a very tight niche. They offer a service which can come as part of a new build or installation to an existing building. The problem is the the traffic volumes are very targeted and very low, but a single sale can be very lucrative. Another problem is that it is very difficult to determine who the converting visitor will be as depending on the potential project it could be an owner, PM, architect, designer and on... There are no clear cut decision makers, it's always on a case by case basis. Because of this the client is baulking at any attempts to gather contact details because they are arguing it may not be the decision maker and in their industry they know it will cheese people off parting with contact details and it "may not be the right person anyway". I am looking at encouraging exploring ideas based around a traditional newsletter, whitepaper, survey etc. Has anyone else had experience in this kind of scenario where search volumes (organic, PPC) are low enough that the timeframes for testing any value become uncomfortably stretched and even then difficult to determine any general trends?

Adwords Remarketing Advice - Low Traffic Pages
Moz, I am just looking for a little advice if anyone has any experience with Google Adwords and remarketing in particular, I am currently looking through the Adwords help pages to gain a better understanding of how Adwords remarketing works, from what i gather this can be a really useful resource to use in certain industries and i have a lot of ideas and scenarios where i think this could work really well, I am just trying to get a good understanding of the how remarketing lists are built up, Using Rule based targeting for visitors that have visited a specific page that gains roughly 1200 unique visits every 60 days, so i have set the membership duration to 60 days, So if i use the visit of this page as a rule for my list, then in a little less than 60 days time then my custom ads should start appearing to these previous visitors ? My Question Am a right in thinking the remarketing list is like a funnel, once 1000 visitors are added to this list/funnel then my ads will start showing, but then as those visitors in the funnel have reached the 61st Day they will be removed, and replaced with the new visitors being added to the list for that day ? Aslong as my list remains above 1000 visitors it will continue to show, but if i were to drop below 1000 visits within that 60 days my ads would not be visible ? so i would need to potentially extend the membership period if this happens ? Apologies as i really struggled to explain this question as best as i can 🙂 Hope someone can drop me a quick comment and straighten this out to ensure that i am on the right track and i am understanding this correctly 🙂 Thanks a lot James

Does Lack of CTR Reduce Organic Impressions
I have a business model that works off Impressions and not CTR.
Conversion Rate Optimization | | numbers
Obviously impressions on a search engine normally lead to CTR and the landing page does the conversion. But what if I can convert a sale directly on the search engine results page without the client clicking the actual search result. Therefore the CTR is heavily reduced. Does a reduced CTR effect your rank on the search results? I know that in PPC the CTR is an important factor for relevancy, thus reducing your PPC costs. Result is you pay more per click to get position 1-3. But does it matter for organic results ? I am currently testing the model and do have pages in rank 1-3 that generate approximately 3 times the number of conversion to the CTR (unique sales). I would also like to know if there is a way to measure the numbr of Impressions a page gets with their search rank, webmaster tools does have it but it seems to be a rounded to the nearest 10,000 figure. All contributions on this welcome, Thank You.0 -
