NTEN redesign: bounce rates
NTEN continue to share lots of useful information about their redesign process, including this insight into their web analytics:
“Our bounce rate is pretty darn high for folks who find our site through search: about 68%. New visitors also bounce at a high rate: about 67%. Our blog, which gives us the most traffic from search, has a bounce rate above 75%.
Friend of NTEN Avinash Kaushik says that organizations should aim for a bounce rate under 50%. We don’t expect our new visitor bounce rate will get THAT low, but there’s some work we can do to make sure people find MORE great content and stick around our site.”
