I personally do not use plugins to reduce bounce rate beacuse it won't give me the needed flexibility when it comes to making my site user friendly.

Get the real Time On Site and Bounce Rate in Google Analytics. Google Analytics calculates the Time On Site based on the length of time between a user entering your site and their last page view. This won\'t give you the REAL Time on Site and Bounce Rate stats.

FEATURES
Compatible with Google Analytics by Yoast
Old and new tracking codes are supported
Code placement choice between header and footer
Track page scrolls
Change time event frequency
Set maximum tracking time
Disable for administrator role
Worst case scenario A visitor is very interested in one of your pages and takes 2 minutes and 13 seconds to read the article. After this he bookmarks the page and leaves. This visitor stayed 2 minutes and 13 seconds on your page, but never interacted with it. To Google that is a bounce! And bounced visits are marked 0:00 Time on Site. Not fair, right?


Another bad scenario A visitor goes to your website and stays 1 minute and 11 seconds on the first page. Then, he goes to a second page where he stays 1 minute and 12 seconds. Without any interaction on this page, he leaves. Since Google doesn't know how long your visitor stayed on the second page, Google will add only the time the visitor spent on the first page to Analytics. Not fair, right?


This plugin sets this straight. It will tell Google Analytics every 10 seconds that your visitor is still on the page and that there was some interaction on that page. Your page will be "unbounced".


It's all based on a script made by Brian Cray and is totally accepted by Google (see Other Notes for more info). The results are more accurate Time on Site and Bounce Rate statistics.

You could also look into BackJacker. My plugin is the most advanced tool on the market to reduce bounce rate. While some of the other plugins may help, they typically will only inject a single URL into the back button. Once the user hits back, then back again, they will still register as a bounce.

With BackJacker, you can inject multiple URLs into the back button. If someone were to bounce from your site, it would require a bunch of back button clicks depending on your settings. Most people will get frustrated and just close the browser after a period of time thus not registering as a bounce. We offer a 100% risk free 3 day trial...just click my signature for more info.
