Site Comments affecting bounce rate?

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

Recently, I noticed an increase of my site bounce rate after submitting many requests for comments.

I was wondering if Site Comment system has caused the bounce rate increase because:

1. Members clicked to view your site but not ready to give comment due to unfamiliarity of the site contents and decided to move on to the next site. (I did this myself too)

2. Members clicked to view the site, move back to WA to write a comment and then close the web page.

A probable solution to this.

When I am viewing a site for comment nowadays, I will read the About me page first. In this way,

1. I could know the owner of the site better, know his/her name and reasons of setting up the website, so I could write a better comment related to the owner.

2. Prevent the owner's site having high bounce rate.

Love to hear what you think.
