    1. Make Data-Informed Decisions


    2. Prioritize & Optimize


    3. Utilize Profiling and Segmentation


    4. Maintain Keyword Integrity


    5. Improve Loading Times


    6. Be Careful with External Links


    7. Don’t Get Tricky : There are lot of other tricks you can use to lower your bounce rate, like embedding polls, contests, and other attention-grabbing clickable content. However, if the sole purpose of these tactics is just to lower your bounce rate, you may lose sight of what a real consumer is looking for.


    8. Account for Social Media : As more sites are discovered and consumed through social networks, the impact of these platforms on bounce rates is becoming more important. With social, there are limitations — like Twitter‘s character count, for example — to properly qualify and represent the landing page content. Use relevant hashtags to qualify your content, along with other metadata, like location, that can add more information without pushing the character count of your message. On the other end of the spectrum, sharing links on Facebook can be a rich experience, with images, user-input and friend-tagging. Utilize these platform-specific features to enrich the reader’s experience.

    You list down point 1 to 6 but you never explain what it means in layman's term. Did you copy and paste from somewhere?

    I am really impressed with your knowledge. However, wanted to add if you can elaborate more on the first 6 points so that a layman can also understand what you are talking about. This is just a friendly advice and hope you take it in positive manner.

    Bounce rate is the enemy of every website.......
    1. Be Mindful of Ad Placement
    2. Lazy-Load Third-Party Content
    3. Contrast Is Key
    4. Have Clean, Accessible Navigation
    5. Your Message Should Be Immediately Obvious
    6. No Distractions, Please
    7. Have a Responsive Layout

    It's an Internet marketing term used in web traffic analysis. It represents the percentage of visitors who enter the site and "bounce" (leave the site) rather than continue viewing other pages within the same site. It's really a considerable thing for website, you have shared useful tips for reducing bounce rate. Unique content is an effective way for spending much time on website by visitors.
