Fresh, compelling content and a call to action that reaches out and grabs the attention would be my first suggestion.
Assuming that the content is compelling, use contextual links to take the visitor deeper into the site.

Thanks for all the good advice. Do you think that A/B or multivariate testing can help find ways to reduce bounce rate?
I read somewhere that if the visitor doesn't change page on your site then the time spent is not counted. So if someone visit your site and only read what is on the landing page and then leave your site then the time spent is not calculated.
That's correct. It's counted as a 'bounce' regardless of how long they stay on the landing page if they don't click to another page.
