Lowering my bounce rate experiment + Ideas for earning extra pocket money

Hey everyone!

I've noticed my traffic has reached an avg of 30 new visitors daily (I think?), and with that boost came a very high bounce rate...

Not sure what to do about this, as I try to keep my content engaging.

So here's the experiment I'm going to use to see if it affects the bounce rate:

- Adding more 'hip' or less generic pictures for content posts

- Be more consistent with the brief "what to expect from this post" section of the content

- Keeping the introductory content shorter and consistently engaging

Well, that's all for the experiment.

Okay, so this will be really quick.

Been finding problems coming up with the funds for Premium, so I've been trying a freelancing site to get some side cash.

Here are some ideas for anyone reading (these are also what I'm currently using):

- Selling on eBay

- Swagbucks (Yes, this works and it is lucrative)

- Selling a skill on a freelancing site (Just started yesterday, so I'll let you guys know if this worth your time or not in the future)

Hope these ideas help!

What did you guys do when you needed to make a little extra pocket bacon?

Let me know with a comment below!

Much love,

Jess
