Mom Bloggers Club: Connect With Over 16,000 Mom Bloggers

Hi y'all, my name is Jen and my blog is Review Retreat. I began my blog back in January and began to see a steady increase in traffic beginning in March.

It feels like lately, I am so busy promoting my blog anywhere and everywhere I can find. My bounce rate is fairly high, above 50%, which means more than half of my visitors are one time visitors. I would love nothing more than to have repeat visitors and a consistent increase in followers.

I would appreciate any advice, suggestions or general comments on improving my blog. Is it difficult to navigate? Are there too many giveaways, not enough giveaways? Are the colors frightening? Does the page load slow? What else would you like to see featured? I'm really at a loss as of what to do. I initially thought by now, I would be comfortable blogging more and promoting less, yet is seems like quite the opposite.

Thanks for your help ladies!!!

Hey Jen-

Your blog has a lot going on. Sometimes less is more. While what you are offering is great, I get the feel you are trying to put everything on the home page.

To improve your bounce rate, try a couple of these:

1) Instead of posting the full post, use a click here for more to make the reader click into the site to read the rest of what you have to say.

2) use teasers for posts and only put the most recent or 2 most recent posts on your home page.

Let me know how it goes!
