Bounce rate indicates the percentage of visitors that leave your website in a specific time period. They view a few pages and leave your website.

If you are experiencing high bounce rate on your website, Search Engine Journal contributor Amelia Wilson has shared some useful tips to reduce it.

Wilson says, “There are a number of reasons your website can have a high bounce rate. Let’s review 10 common ones and how to fix them.

1. Slow-to-Load Page

Site speed is part of Google’s ranking algorithm, so it’s just good SEO to focus on it. Google wants to promote content that provides a positive experience for users, and they recognize that a slow site can provide a poor experience.

If your page takes longer than a few seconds to load, your visitors may get fed up and leave. Fixing site speed is a lifelong journey for most SEO pros and webmasters, but the upside is that with each incremental fix, you should see an incremental boost in speed”.
