I have never tried PPC to reduce bounce rate. However, that should actually work. Would it be best to target long tailed keywords?

On my SEO Blog, I don’t sell anything, it is all for free. So, PPC would cost me money out of my pocket. I’ll have to figure out what to sell.

The search engines know the bounce rate of a website. When you make changes to your content, google will put your site up top to see what happens. If people click on your title from a certain key word and bounce right off, Google puts your site back where it was. If people who search that word stay a while and come back from the same IP address often (give them a reason to) Google notes this highly. Backlinks are still important, however Google doesn’t count as many as they used to. It has to be a bonified backlink from a high PR site and not just a listing on Ebay. The bounce rate is the most important factor a webmaster can worry about when designing a site. Not just to increase sales but to increase traffic which also increases sales.

Hi, Thanks for the tips. Does listing in directories increase the bounce rate?

Great tips. Thanks. Will be working on reducing my bounce rate over the next year. And maybe even my weight

Being a Red Sox fan is much easier.

Joking aside, I’m a big fan of your three suggestions, with a little partiality to #3. Good advice.
