When websites make you dizzy

For many of us navigating a website, were enamored by the cool features, videos, and pop-ups that appear on the screen in front of us. Our brains naturally consume the constant stimuli and can navigate a site easily to where we need to go. We don’t really have to think twice about what we are consuming.  

For other people, however, this constant stimulation brings feelings of dizziness, vertigo, nausea, and headaches to name a few. For users with vestibular conditions or dizziness, navigating a website can be an overwhelming experience. Constant scrolling, video autoplay, and other elements can not only trigger these symptoms but can quite literally hurt your user.
