Hi,
One extremely good reason why you may want to consider using pagination.
I just found a separate canonical pointing at a different page URL when I used your infinite scroll
**Your URL & your canonical Do not match it would be okay if: **you are trying to send traffic to a different URL that is off-site. Now if it is on-site canonical's most of the time are better handled by 301's or 302 Plus this happened on 25 URLs in a row so it i is an attempt to direct traffic somewhere else.
SEE:
page code:
You can't do this without changing URLs Please think about site structure and how if you check your Google analytics I guarantee you the deeper you get away from the homepage the less traffic you get. The golden rule is no more than three clicks from the homepage meaning if land on the homepage and I want to find an article about X, Y, and Z I am going to be able to find those articles through your navigation taking me (in an ideal world) no more than clicks from the homepage.
if you have a really powerful brand something that is a household name forget what I said you can do whatever you want. If you do not you, unfortunately, have one place where you have to find a huge amount of links and the only way you can do it is by scrolling so if I want to show my friend the article that you wrote and I did not share that article or bookmark it I cannot find it unless I scroll through a large amount of other and hopefully find it. Google is not going to endlessly crawl URLs that are not together internally and through a solid site structure. You need to remember that site structure is one of the most important things to building a website. If you create URL structure that hard for people and Google to crawl you will get extremely poor results.
If you really feel the need to do this make sure you add pagination to the bottom and you have a footer that people can actually access during the entire experience. If you look at this entire page you will notice there is pagination on the bottom just like the 1-2-3 style examples below. Yet you can do what appears to be very similar to infinite scrolling, however, there is an enormous difference in this you notice there are pages listed every X amount of items. And you can simply go to what you need to go. to using pagination on the bottom see pictures.
make sure to check Google's index though I would be careful nonetheless. https://www.google.com/search?q=site:www.neakriti.gr/+inurl:page
https://www.google.gr/search?q=site:www.neakriti.gr/+inurl:page
and most importantly when I go to the CRM build and host your site I see that they the time to chapter different parts of each unique page showing me that they are not using infinite scrolling while yes the pages may be large they are using

Stick to what works I like that you have the bar on top showing me how far I have scrolled however I'm used to it telling me how far down the page I've gone not how far down I have gone on an
