초록

이탈률은 사용자가 방문한 후 별다른 요청 없이 바로 이탈한 비율이며 본 연구를 통해 웹사이트의 어떤 속성이 이탈률에 영향을 미치는지 알아보고자 하였다. 웹사이트 평가항목은 선행연구를 통하여 다양한 업종의 벤처기업에 공통으로 적용할 수 있도록 사용성과 정보, 서비스상호작용, 기술 등 총 4가지 항목과 27개 평가속성으로 정의하였다. 연구 결과 이탈률에 영향을 미치는 웹사이트 속성은 판별분석과 의사결정나무분석에 의해 6개가 유의한 것으로 검증되었다. 본 연구를 통한 벤처기업 웹사이트의 이탈률을 줄이기 위한 제안은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 웹사이트의 경로명을 필수로 표시하고 풀다운 메뉴 기능을 추가하여 다른 페이지로의 이동이 용이하도록 한다. 둘째, 사용자의 관심을 끌 만한 핵심 콘텐츠를 배너 형태로 노출하고 서브 페이지에서도 내부링크 배너를 적재적소에 배치하는 것이 좋다. 셋째, 외부링크는 현재 페이지를 바로 이탈하지 않도록 새 창으로 연동하여 재유입이 가능하도록 해야 한다. 마지막으로 담당자 연락처와 상담기능은 고객과의 소통을 위한 직접 정보로서 노출이 권장되지만 개별 응대가 어려울 경우에는 상담기능만이라도 필수로 추가해야 한다. 이러한 제안들은 웹사이트의 개발과 운영, 마케팅 등 여러 분야에서 실무적으로 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다. 다만 특수한 경우에는 높은 이탈률이 정상적일 수도 있으므로 상황에 맞게 고려되어야 한다.

The bounce rate is the rate at which a user leaves immediately after visiting, and this study aimed to find out what attributes of a website affect the bounce rate. Web site evaluation items were defined as a total of 4 items and 27 evaluation attributes, including usability, information, service interaction, and technology, so that they can be commonly applied to venture companies in various industries through prior research. As a result of the study, 6 website attributes that affect the bounce rate were verified to be significant by discriminant analysis and decision tree analysis. Suggestions to reduce the bounce rate of venture business websites through this study are as follows. First, the path name of the website is displayed as mandatory and a pull-down menu function is added to facilitate movement to other pages. Second, it is good to expose core content that can attract users' attention in the form of a banner, and place internal link banners in the right place on sub-pages. Third, external links should be linked to a new window so that they do not leave the current page immediately so that they can be re-entered. Lastly, it is recommended to expose the contact information of the person in charge and consultation function as direct information for communication with customers, but if individual response is difficult, at least the consultation function must be added. These suggestions are expected to be of practical help in various fields such as website development, operation, and marketing. However, in special cases, a high bounce rate may be normal, so it should be considered according to the situation.
