📉 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.
2️⃣ Baseline & Target Metrics
Metric | Baseline (Dec 2024) | Target (End of Q1) | Change Required |
---|---|---|---|
Average Bounce Rate (A/B Tested Posts) | 62% | 55.8% | ↓ 10% |
Top Post Bounce Rate (High Traffic) | 70% | 63% | ↓ 10% |
Mobile Bounce Rate | 68% | 61.2% | ↓ 10% |
