Reducing bounce rate is nothing but to bolster your visitor's engagement with your site. This starts with attracting the right visitors at the first place that are interested in your services & products. Then, use everything you can to get those visitors to browse more pages, once they visit your site. Use widgets or other thematic menu's on your site and link them with related useful pages on your site. Long story short, give your visitors plenty of opportunities to click & browse to related information within your site.

If your bounce rate is still high, it might mean that you have catchy titles that grabs the attention of your visitors but when they start reading they turn the page off because they don't find anything useful. So streamline your catchy titles with equally useful outcome that your visitors are expecting. Don't just try to monetize your clients, instead engage them & you should see your bounce rate reduce.
