Sudden drop in bounce rate - Site Owners Forums

nelson1 · 03-07-2012, 05:23 AM

Hi there
I noticed a sudden drop in bounce rate of my website from 52% to 6%.
What could be the possible reason behind this ? Its good for my website but i am confused about the drastic change.
Help me to find the reason behind this. Thanks

As per your give stats the bounce rate looks good for your website, but also check whether the number of visitors also drop or it is increasing. If the number of visitors also drop then if you calculate the average percentage then it is not good.

I am agree with Blbs.You should check number if visitors also. Minimum bounce rate is always good for any website but your given stats are creating some doubts.So please check it again.

That�s nice, congrats! I hope you had the analytics code installed on all the pages of your website (that can help you better). General possibilities are:

-You reduced your page loading speed (by optimizing videos, images or cutting out Flash)
-You have included good quality content
-You have made site navigation easier
-You have highlighted your best posts above the fold by cutting out ads that interfered with site navigation.
