      Our site had a huge drop in bounce rate in one day (went from 10% to 3%) and it has stayed that way.

      What could cause this?

        Hi there

        Did you have any site changes on that day? GTM installed? Pages removed or updated? CTAs added or internal linking changes? Anything?

        Read the following:

        • This is Why Your Bounce Rate Dropped in Analytics
        • Explanation for a Dramatic Drop in Bounce Rate

        They discuss theories such as:

        • Multiple pageviews triggers firing (being sent to Analytics) on a single page

        • A duplicate installation of Google Analytics code

        • Google Tag Manager installed along side of Google Analytics code

        • Event is being sent to Analytics after pageview

        Hope this helps! Good luck!
