Key Findings
Readability (Flesch) high
Content structure (headings) medium
1. What Causes High Bounce Rate?
Visitors bounce when they don't find what they need. This can be due to slow loading (TTFB > 500ms), poor readability (Flesch < 50), lack of internal links (no next steps), or unclear value proposition (bad first impression).
2. How NakedURL Helps Diagnose Bounce
We measure TTFB and page size for speed issues. We provide readability scores to gauge comprehension. We count internal links to see if you're guiding users deeper. We also check heading structure for scannability.
3. How to Lower Bounce Rate
Improve page speed with caching and image optimization. Write clear, scannable content with short paragraphs and bullet points. Add relevant internal links to keep users exploring.
- Optimize images and enable caching
- Improve readability (shorter sentences, simpler words)
- Add internal links to related content
- Make your call‑to‑action visible
⚠️ The Problem
High bounce rate hurts conversions and rankings
- Slow loading – users leave before page loads
- Difficult to read – users give up
- No clear next step – users don't know where to go
- Poor mobile experience – frustrating
