    What's your bounce rate for your website(s)? At the moment, I have three websites, and they have 23-37%.

    Also, what's your best tips/suggestions to help optimize it?

    Looking forward to our responses.

    Here are a few quickie reminders on how to improve your bounce rate.
    - Every story should have a link back to your own blog. Remember to include a link every 120 words. Â These links should be a combination of external and internal URLs.
    - State your blog’s purpose/intention on the top header. If your first-time visitors cannot understand what your blog is offering in under two seconds, odds are that they’ll be one-page viewers.
    - Have a tag cloud available site wide. You want your audience to be able to find the information they are looking for from any page they are on.
    - Include related links at the bottom of every post. Many blog platforms have add-ons that will perform this task automatically.  Even if you have to add the links manually, it’s a worthy endeavor.
    - Encourage readers to take action. Possibilities include offering a survey, challenging them to answer a question or offer a swanky prize.
    Learn from my mistake; don’t allow a positive event have a negative influence on your overall blog picture.
