On a site designed like this where I tend to not notice the scroll bar, I usually just click on the things I see to try and make something happen. In this case, not much happens from clicks (because the site desperately needs a graphic to encourage you to scroll), so I quickly lose interest and bail.


I don’t really understand this viewpoint - scrolling has always been the default way to see more content on a webpage. Clicking on things to navigate is very much a secondary activity. Why would you not scroll every web page to see if there is more content that didn’t fit on your screen?


I suppose because modern websites are actually apps, in an app you click on stuff to see more content

If web page does not look like a blog or a newsletter, it is not wrong to assume the app format


Well don’t leave us hanging. Did you figure out that you need to scroll?
