    I run a Proxy and My bounce rate is pretty high,Would this because I run a Proxy and the "Visit Url" box is on the homepage and that means there searching from the homepage and not hitting any other pages within the site.

    I wouldn't say it was quality ..... No but the main function of the site is based on the homepage.

    Not unless there's any other reason why visitors would need to click on other pages of your site, a high bounce rate for a proxy website is perfectly fine.

    You have to have content that you're readers are interested in. By the way can anyone recommend this book "Outsmarting Google: SEO Secrets to Winning New Business" at www.books-for-everyone.com

    High bounce rate on proxy sites is because all the visitors just hit directly to the url box and this is perfectly fine.

    Agreeing here also, I think the average user wouldn't look too deep into other pages, depending on referral route/keywords though I guess.
