One little known tip that I've been using for years to reduce bounce rates is to increase the text size by a few pixels.
I've successfully reduced the bounce rates on a few sites with that hack alone. On others it made little difference. I guess the older the audience, the more pronounced the effect.

- rlander 15y agoLiterally a guess. I've worked with very few sites that target older consumers, so my data points are limited, but in one of these the bounce rate dropped by more than 20% (home decor industry). Unlike more recent experimentations, I did not conduct a formal AB/multivariate test, but the font size had been the only internal change at the time. Also, I have no idea whether these lower bounce rates translated into higher revenue. Also, all of the sites mentioned above were female-oriented.
