📉 SayPro Initiative: Reduce Bounce Rate by 10%

Quarter: Q1 – January to March 2025
Initiative Reference: SayPro Monthly February SCMR-4
Department: SayPro Posts Office
Leadership Oversight: SayPro Marketing Royalty
Optimization Objective: Bounce Rate Reduction through Content Relevance & Engagement


🎯 Objective

Goal:
Reduce the average bounce rate by 10% on all SayPro posts where A/B testing is applied. The initiative focuses on using actionable A/B test data to enhance post relevance, layout, and engagement elements.

Definition of Bounce Rate:
The percentage of users who land on a page and leave without interacting further (no clicks, scrolls, or secondary actions).


1️⃣ Strategic Importance

A high bounce rate is often a symptom of one or more of the following:

  • Misaligned content expectations (from title/SEO promise vs. actual content)
  • Poor initial visual or structural presentation
  • Lack of engaging calls to action or internal links
  • Mobile usability or page speed issues

By applying insights from A/B testing, SayPro can better understand user behavior and directly improve content quality and structure, reducing bounce and increasing content depth, time on page, and conversion.
