4. Keep Reading
The ‘Keep Reading’ plugin can be used to display a small tag in the lower right portion of a screen when the page contains content below the fold. This is very useful for mobile browsers where you may desire a long form on one page in order to cut down on network trips. The tag will alert users that they need to scroll to view additional content. Once the user scrolls the page, the ‘more content’ tag is animated out of view.
