Question about Bounce Rate SEO

01-09-2016, 02:59 PM

I run a local business that is only really interested in customers from the surrounding area, say 30 miles.

Google analytics says my bounce rate is 91.22%

The site does really well locally and is found on Google P1/P2 for the vast majority of our keywords.
We also have high quality links from large established sites.

For some reason Google shows #1 traffic from Russia and #2 from USA #4 China #5 Brazil

Obviously if people are coming from these stupid locations I will have a high bounce rate.

Should I block whole countries or what the fuck does this mean?

Since I don't do international sales, I do geographical blocking. No point in having traffic that means nothing to me.

I know we are supposed to be the same person, and someone is going to say it was a softball question but if you are getting the traffic you want (local), then unless these Commies are running up the bandwidth bill (are they?), I wouldn't worry about it too much. I would try to figure out WHY they are hitting your site.

Is someone messing with you? Is your SEO so good you are ranking for words you weren't trying for? There has to be a reason unless you live local to Russia/China.

Why not sell that traffic to an international competitor or even redirect to cams?

If you haven't already done it, you could try setting it up in Google webmaster tools to set a country to target and see if that helps, or set up a .htaccess that detects Russians and redirect to a landing page with Russian ads or something like that.

Based on this circumstantial evidence I'd say this means your shop or whatever has a common name.

I'm just not that smart.

I don't know how I would redirect just international traffic to certain sites.

I've just kept it blocked since I learned how to use webmaster tools several years ago, so I don't even know what it would look like if I opened the gates.

I have a Dutch BDSM webshop that also gets a lot of traffic from other countries. I don't redirect them or play tricks. Because when Google comes with a new set of rules, my shop will get hurt.. Not saying that it will happen fast, but for now I just don't care about that traffic as long as the sales are coming in....

Sig too big

In terms of just looking good to google? I can't really capitalize on it in my own business.

Help me understand a little better how it could benefit me other than selling or redirecting.

All my traffic is free other than what my sales people advertise on backpage.

Read up on geo location. Just make sure the content on the alternate landing pages is very similar to the content googlebot sees.

Never block, redirect visitors or show different page. You can help google to inform in the webmastertools what is your priority country (but google does what he wants) Bandwidth can't be the problem anymore nowadays.

There are some local SEO ideas, things like where is your shop/product (city, phone number) , unique text with cities you target, local links to your page, and use https://support.google.com/business/.../2911778?hl=en (Google is able to understand your opening hours if you have this)

As long google send traffic you don't want, monetize it with a adserver (local traffic show your ads and sell the rest)

Show same page with different "ads" is not a problem. Some adnetworks are looking for visitors from china. (Alibaba.com is buying a lot of traffic now here in Europe)

There are a lot of adservers in the market. We build one specially for XXX industry where you can filter all you needs.

The next step of performance network

Want to test different XXX ad networks fast and easy and make 30% more by spread out your traffic. Looking for beta more beta testers www.geniusbanner.com

Have you filtered out all the referrer spam ?

It's highly possible that most of that so called traffic isn't even getting to your website but it's simply referral spammers firing off GA scripts using random GA account codes elsewhere.

If your site is ranking for the kw you like dont worry about the traffic. You should trugh make sure the bounce rate of the traffic you like have the correct bounce rate, to make sure your site delivers.

1. If you have not already make a google buiesness account make one.

2. Make sure you upload photos that are geo target to the company adress to yout GB account. That is done with picasa. Make sure all images have kw in them my-company.jpg. You can also rename them with picasa. It's wery effictive.

3. Get some local links. Getting links from local will help ips will help

4. Set the country in google webmaster tools.

5. Never redirect.

Also once you geo target the images for the business, put them on https://www.google.com/business/

Edit: Just realized you already said to put it on Google Business..
