I have always felt that if I link to a sponsor It should not be a _blank link. Maybe I should reconsider?
I don't know this for a fact, but as long as your site is open, nobody has "bounced" yet. It seems like simple logic.

I know there was some people doing some blackhat stuff, like opening a 1 pixel popunder for a while, but google got hip to then an penalized.

Thanks Jay, awaiting Paul Markham to fill us in on how to get a bounce rate of 0 though.
Hahahaha :thumbsup

That's why you do your link development in a smart manner. It's still the cornerstone of SEO. While the bounce is a big, if newer player to the algo, you can still move your serps all days long with decent relevant backlinks.

Speaking of, since there are some smart people in this thread (it seems) - I'm on linkspun as user 'xxxjay' - hit me up on ICQ 62835707 if you want to trade...I will prioritize you over the 100's of so-so requests I get every few days.

IMHO it's stupid idea to block countries for bounce rate purposes.

If chinese guy clicks on your link through google, and get's "404 error" or smth similar, he will instantly click "back", and google will detect it as 1 second bounce rate.. IMHO it will harm your bounce rate and not help

When you block them at your firewall, they never get to a 404

Wouldn't Google be smart enough to take geographic bounce rate into consideration anyways?

If you have a 90% bounce rate from China and a 30% from the US, I would think they would factor that in rather than just averaging the whole thing out to 60%.

Per my contact at Google, geographic bounce is indeed a factor.

I'm sure you already know this... But just in case, and for others who may not be aware of it, try avoiding reciprocal link trades as much as possible. Do a-b-c(-d-e-f etc) trading whenever possible. Even more effective if you can do a-b c-d etc.

funny thing is years ago when i was telling people this they didn't believe me

When i predicted that "illegal" tube sites with full length movies were going to kill "legal" tube sites with 2-3 minute clips they said i was crazy.

stickiness/bounce rate was the reason i gave.

more specifically bouncing back to the search engine to search again (proof that you didn't find what you wanted at the site in question).

That's goes without saying but worth quoting for truth.
