Why convert to Sticky Navigation?

Sticky or fixed navigation refers to navigation that doesn’t get lost when you scroll down on a website. Although only a few major sites have adopted this design, Facebook and Google + for example, research is showing overwhelming statistics that people prefer sticky navigation to the traditional, even though they may not realize why. Imagine that you are using InDesign or MS Word and as soon as you scroll down the document you lose the toolbar at the top of the page. Frustrating right? Online users don’t commonly regonize this as frustrating because it is what they have been used to. However, with the trends changing, you can be sure that sticky navigation will be making more of an appearance in the future, and users will begin to demand a simpler way to navigate their favorite sites.
