    Hey Alfredito,

    16% bounce rate is a good sign that your site is meeting most visitor's expectations. Your bounce rate is a key indicator of how well your website or landing page is working for your visitors. Think of it as a vote against your website. When a visitor bounces off your website, in effect they have said “No Thanks.” If you're looking to lower your bounce rate even more, here are ten great ways to reduce your website’s bounce rate and have your visitors saying “Yes Please.” http://www.diamondwebsiteconversion.com/10-great-ways-to-lower-your-websites-bounce-rate/

    If you have any more questions about bounce rate or would like me to look at your site I would be happy to.

    Kindly,

    Shelby

    Optimizing your website for conversion isn't expensive. Leaving money on the table is.

    Sasanchez, high bounce rate doesn't mean your website doesn't meet visitors' expectations, in fact it can be the other way around.
    Just think for yourself. You're looking for an answer to your question and get the answer on the first page... you got the answer and you leave. Plain and simple.
    Just think when you check the weather on the internet, you see the forecast and you leave website, at least most of us do.

    Even google doesn't use Bounce Rate for ranking anymore as they understand it may be misguiding.

    Mine is 58.82% according to Google analytics, which seems too high. Why you guys' bounce is so low, how do you guys lower down the bounce rate?

    16% bounce rate is really nice. After all bounce rate depends on many factors. For a technology sites the bounce rate usually high compared to a wall paper/ photo graphic site. It is because user will left after he read the solution from the tech site as he don't need to check other pages. For a wall paper website, it is more interesting and user may browse to other pages. Trick is simple.

    So we cannot judge any website based on bounce rate :)

    16% bounce rate is very good because if you promote your website then bounce rate sure come. I think till 30% bounce rate is not bad.

    Agree with praetserge. In case of blogs and new websites, bounce rate is always higher there as people come to read and exit from the same page.
