Infinite scroll with WordPress
Increase user engagement
Infinite scrolling helps keep people on your site for longer and can improve your search rankings.
Easier to read
With infinite scrolling, you make it easier for people to discover content they didn’t know existed on your site by allowing them to quickly and easily retrieve older content.
Better mobile experience
Users who can browse your website content on small devices are more likely to stick around. Mobile site visitors expect endless scrolling.
Great for visual websites
Websites with a lot of visual content can benefit the most from infinite scrolling, because while written text can be overwhelming for some when it’s still loading, visuals are not.
Improved web navigation
Infinite scrolling makes it easy to browse the web instead of clicking through pages just scroll down.
Missing footer
With infinite scrolling, your site is likely to be missing a footer, a valuable piece of real estate.
Extensive navigation can be confusing
While endless scrolling is meant to improve the initial viewing experience, navigating internal links can be confusing.
Hard to track metrics
Because endless scrolling is a pain on one page, tracking site metrics can be difficult.
Potential SEO issues
SEO issues can arise because your site is just one big long web page.
Site lock and crashes
Infinite scrolling tends to lock up and hang, even going so far as to crash site users.
Adding manually with code
If you choose to add WordPress infinite scrolling manually, it’s important to make sure your current WordPress theme supports this feature.
Using ajax read more
Once you’ve got your shortcode exactly how you want it, there are several ways you can use it on your site. You can either copy and paste the shortcode you see in the Ajax Shortcode Builder, or you can use the visual editor in WordPress to create the code.
Visual WordPress editor
Ajax Load More adds a new feature to the WordPress visual editor. If you don’t want to create a code just to copy and paste it into a post or page, just click the button to open the creator.
Conclusion
Infinite scrolling is a truly remarkable feature to add to your WordPress site. Used wisely, it not only allows users to stay on your site longer, but also displays your content better.
