Problems Arise Due to Scrolling
Scroll Fatigue:
- Even though scrolling is a useful tool, it’s important to make a balance to avoid scroll fatigue.
Short span of focus:
- On long pages, scrolling excessively can overwhelm users and cause them to lose interest. To mitigate this, designers must prioritise content, keep a logical page flow, and use visual cues to guide users through the page.
Connected links:
- Anchor links, sticky navigation bars, and a clear information hierarchy can also help users navigate more efficiently and with less fatigue without the traditional process of pagination.
