That's not a w3m thing, that's provided by the web page in question.
Google provides nice rel="next|prev" links, and SPC in w3m is bound to a
command that will scroll the buffer, or follow a "next" link if you're
at the bottom of the buffer and there is such a link.

If the site doesn't provide next/prev, there's not much w3m can do, at
least not out of the box.
