Google Analytics Bounce Rate Are You Killing It?

 Thank You For Not Killing My Bounce Rate

Let me take this time by saying thank you for not killing my bounce rate. Since you clicked to the next page I got a brownie point from Google, Yaaa.

The Google Analytics Bounce Rate Game

This is a Google Analytics Bounce Rate Game for sure. Years ago they instructed us to write for humans not for search engines. That was a crock! Peoples attention span these days is like 8 seconds but Google wants you to keep people on your site for like several minutes and make them click on something.

Is Your Site Meaningful To Google?

The truth is Google does not actually know if your site is meaningful. All this information about writing for humans just went out the window. I am writing for a search engine now. Notice all my subheadings and the way I choose my words to almost exactly match the subheadings? You know why people have such a hard time with this? Because they are people, not search engines!

To write a good article that gets indexed you are going to spend at least a couple hours. Now with video rankings coming into play you are looking a a couple more. Then marketing that article is going to be another hour. This is why “New Start Ups” are very hard to convince. They will never know unless they do the time and work.

Wanna Better Bounce Rate Do The Work!

Well people there is no way around it, if you wanna better bounce rate then do the work. I show my sons what they have to do to rank in Google for one article. Their eyes fall heavy and eventually they are so bored out of their minds they fall asleep. I can’t blame them though. It’s no longer just writing a quick post and out the door because “It’s A Full Time Job”!

Well thats my 2 cents about the Google Bounce rate. Do you have any suggestions? Please feel free to leave them in the comment box below. Have a nice day! 🙂
