Make sure your website loads quickly. A slow-loading website can be a major reason for high bounce rates.
Use a clean and user-friendly design. A cluttered or confusing website can cause visitors to leave quickly.
Provide clear and concise information. Visitors should be able to quickly find what they're looking for on your website.
Use compelling and engaging headlines and subheadings. These can help grab the visitor's attention and encourage them to explore your website further.
Include plenty of internal links to other pages on your website. This can help keep visitors on your site longer and reduce bounce rates.
Make sure your website is mobile-friendly. More and more people are using their smartphones to browse the web, so a mobile-friendly website is essential.
Use calls to action to encourage visitors to take specific actions, such as signing up for a newsletter or making a purchase.
Make sure your website is easy to navigate. A well-designed navigation menu can help visitors find what they're looking for quickly and easily.
Use social media to drive traffic to your website. This can help increase the number of visitors to your site and reduce the bounce rate.
Regularly update your content. Fresh, up-to-date content can help keep visitors engaged and reduce the bounce rate.
Are there any other methods to reduce the bounce rate

It is good to have good analytics on the website to understand, how people bounce in the first place.
You can define even in GA4 for 50% and 75% scroll: if the person bounces after reading half the page it isn't the same as if they leave on the intro line.
Heatmap tools like Smartlook Qualitative Analytics can help you to visualize this kind of data.
It is also good to check where your traffic is coming from. High bounce rate can be a signal for bad targeting. If you get a hight bounce on a specific ad campaign consider narrowing your targeting.

Good pointers, nice and actionable! Nice job, @jerryton_surya!
Don’t regularly update your content as it’s takes Google quite a while to test, retest, and test, if you do you’ll not rank very well by updating.
Update then wait at least a couple of months before going in again.
If your loading speeds are slow, head over to pagespeed and don’t leave when you get your scoring, look around especially at the dropdowns as Google has provided information on where to look and fix.
You’ll not believe this but Google wants you to pass here to help avoid bounce.
Thanks for sharing.
Apart from your tips, my suggestions are below:
1. Make sure your website loads quickly. A slow-loading website can drive visitors away before they even have a chance to see what you have to offer.
2. Use clear and high-quality images and videos to engage visitors and keep them on your site.
3.Regularly update your content to keep it fresh and interesting.
