What is the best way to reduce bounce rate from Pinterest Traffic?
-
Hi,
Our bounce rate is very high on incoming traffic from Pinterest. What can we do to redirect the traffic to more than single product page and/or convert them to sign up for newsletter, etc?
Anyone know if there is an average bounce rate from Pinterest traffic?
Thanks.

Social media traffic in general tends not to convert directly to sales, because most people use social media sites for entertainment and not for shopping. Pinterest tends to have a higher shopping intent than other social sites, but still expect a low conversion rate.
There are two things you can do to improve your conversion rate: improve your leads and improve your site.
To improve the quality of your leads, try putting a price tag on your pins in Pinterest. This will tend to attract people who are actually shopping for something, instead of just browsing pretty pictures. Make it clear that the item in your picture is something you have for sale. Use buying keywords in the pin description. All these will attract people to your pins who are more likely to purchase, leading to a higher conversion rate.
As far as improving your site, for reducing bounce rate you can include a "related products" widget to your page, with pictures of other products the user may be interested in. Pinterest users are very visual, so make sure your site design looks nice.
As for improving e-mail conversion rates, don't just ask people to sign up, offer them an incentive. The exact incentive will depend on your industry, but make it something that complements whatever it is you're offering, like a free guide or tip sheet. If you can't think of anything creative, try offering a one-time 15% off coupon for signing up for your newsletter. Make the sign-up form a popup, so people can't ignore it.

Is there a way to drill down on Facebook Audience's interests AFTER ad has run?
Howdy, folks. So, Everyone knows that we can create custom Facebook audience with all the filters, interests and behaviors and see what audience "consist of" in FB audience insights. That's all nice and dandy, but here is my situation: So, I "build" the audience the best way I can, run the ad, have, let's say average results. Theoretically (especially if audience is broad), I would be able to get better results if I was able to see which segment (by interests or behaviors) of targeted audience performed best. And then run another ad to narrowed down audience. But, as far as I understand and know, there is no way to do that. FB reporting only provides breakdowns on age, gender, location, devices and couple more things. So, is there way to get that data? P.S. If I'm still confusing, here are couple examples: I run ad for audience who have interest in football OR meat OR potatoes (let's say because I sell meat and potatoes dish for football players :D). So, is there way for me to find out which interest group performed best without running three separate a/b/c test campaigns (imagine if i have 20 "OR" interests)? I run ad for audience of male, between 22-44 age. Is there way to find out which interests group in this audience performed best?

Good day to all, I do have game download website (Works like Google Play and Steam) and currently working on the deposit page which is payable by fund transfer and Paypal.

My question is, which is better to use for this kind of tracking a goal in Google Analytics? Are we going to use a virtual page or and event tracking method? How can I track users that visit the deposit page that weren't able to do a deposit attempt? Thanks for answering this question. Have a good day ahead.

Does Lack of CTR Reduce Organic Impressions
I have a business model that works off Impressions and not CTR.
Conversion Rate Optimization | | numbers
Obviously impressions on a search engine normally lead to CTR and the landing page does the conversion. But what if I can convert a sale directly on the search engine results page without the client clicking the actual search result. Therefore the CTR is heavily reduced. Does a reduced CTR effect your rank on the search results? I know that in PPC the CTR is an important factor for relevancy, thus reducing your PPC costs. Result is you pay more per click to get position 1-3. But does it matter for organic results ? I am currently testing the model and do have pages in rank 1-3 that generate approximately 3 times the number of conversion to the CTR (unique sales). I would also like to know if there is a way to measure the numbr of Impressions a page gets with their search rank, webmaster tools does have it but it seems to be a rounded to the nearest 10,000 figure. All contributions on this welcome, Thank You.0 -

61.45% Shopping Cart Abandon Rate - How to troubleshoot?
Hello MozPeeps! I wanted to see if I could get some help on the best method for troubleshooting our abandoned shopping cart funnel. Maybe point me in the best areas to research, or what are the best tools to use, or an improved method for analyzing and interpreting the existing data for more clarity about what is happening. I have attached the screen shot that shows what's going on. This account is using a Magento shopping cart with a custom built checkout page that is trying to copy Overstock.com's checkout page. Here are my thoughts: 1. Use Clicktale to monitor the checkout pages in question to try and get a feel for what people are doing or why they are clicking off? 2. Use another tool (not sure which one) that allows us to monitor page load speeds for the checkout process to see if orders are being hung up by slow loading pages. 3. Or, maybe 62% is not an uncommon abandoned cart rate and therefore we should just focus on automating abandoned cart follow up emails for the customers. Thanks in advance for any help! funnel-goal-visualization.jpg

Re-designed website... how to increase organic traffic?
We re-developed our website (adboards(dot)com) around 6 months ago. This has in turn led to a downturn in sales/visits. We have managed to get visits/sales increasing steadily but not to the level of the previous site. Even though we believe the new site is (seems) much more friendly both for SEO and potential customers. We currently run a PPC campaign which seems to bring in steady sales, the problem seems to be our organic traffic and getting our keywords ranked higher. We have tried various methods for increasing our organic traffic including:- Keyword Analysis for our landing pages Backlinking: From various directories and industry related sites Googlebase submission Blog relating to industry news & products Any advise on which area we should be focusing on or any obvious errors you can see on the site would be greatly appreciated.

Good content but high bounce rate
Hi all, We run a website offering specialist turkey tours and gulet cruises. Our website holds a few information and recipes pages which are doing well in the engines and bring in alot of traffic. However these pages are crippling our bounce rate with bounces of about 80-90%. The time on site for these pages are above the websites average, but it seems that once the reader has finished with the information/ recipe, they bounce back to the Search engines. An example of one of our recipe pages can be found here: http://www.petersommer.com/turkey/turkish-food/pilav-rice/ We have thought about moving and redirecting these pages from our main site to a new website, but we are worried that it may effect our position in the SERP's. Can anybody offer any advice on this? Thanks
