    Bounce rate is the number of visitors who just visit your landing (entrance) page and leave your blog/website without exploring any other pages. This is so unlucky that many of them have more than 70 % bounce rate , that means out of 100 users 70 of them leave your website just after reading one page. There are few simple tips which can be deployed to reduce this.

    Welcome message to readers
    A welcome message is always useful to have a welcome message to your readers and highlight your best posts and also it helps to develop a bonding with your readers

    Related posts
    Present your readers with related post which might be interesting for them, there are many plugins available for this.

    Internal linking
    Link your earlier posts with a attractive tag lines in a contextual manner. This gives more page views and reader engagement on your website.

    Attractive titles
    Attractive titles can give you more page views , it is proven

    Faster page load
    If your website loads slow, your readers may not stay for a long time. Give them what they need FAST.

    Control advertisements
    Advertisements are needed but don’t over do it. It can be annoying and will distract your readers.

    Bounce rates below 70 % are considered to be fine and below 65 are good.
