Sorry, I meant in the context of the front page.

Like I said, something like 1/2 of the bounces are from the front
page, which doesn't serve as an end point. There aren't any direct
download links, and the news items are mainly stubs for longer
stories.

I think simplifing the FreeBSD experience (e.g, explicitly telling the
user that ports is where you get software from, and that 99% of the
time it will have what you want) and including more of what a
first-time user would want on the front page (installation, prebuilt
VMs, and assorted introductory literature) will help decrease bounces
from the site index.
