good information, but whats with the large amount of white space at the botton? Your nav to me is hard to find. You have the google banner on the left. Try putting your advert at the top or botton with you nav on the left. Most people look there stright away

Well I went to the site to look at it, and went to right click to see about the white space, and got that an annoying "Sorry, that function is disabled. This Page Copyrighted and Images and Text protected! ALL RIGHTS RESERVED" message.

So once I looked at the source code (see that ricght click thing is not effective), I think I found the answer to the massive white space at the bottom on line 50:

<div align="left" style="width: 978; height: 4702">'

Overall I like the look of the site, nice colors, laid out pretty well, not too confusing upon first visit.

However, once visiting deeper into the site, I noticed some things. The placement of the Google Ads is inconsistent, some pages on the left, some on the right, some not even there. This also seems to apply to the basic color scheme layout of the site. Here are the pages that stood out to me as being different from what I'm thinking your main layout should be:

http://www.pctechbytes.com/referral.htm (looses all navigation, error page very generic)
http://www.pctechbytes.com/advertise.htm (looses all naviagation)
http://www.pctechbytes.com/webdesign.htm (ads moved, boxes on the left not lined up)
http://www.pctechbytes.com/disclaimer.htm (looses navigation)
http://www.pctechbytes.com/supporters.htm (loose navigation, and oh the background colors!)
http://www.pctechbytes.com/pctutorials.htm (navigation changed)
http://www.pctechbytes.com/quiz.htm (colors and navigation)
http://www.pctechbytes.com/news.htm (color and navigation, plus all the news headlines run together to me, too much not laid well)
http://www.pctechbytes.com/sitemap.htm
http://www.pctechbytes.com/help.htm

After looking at all these pages, I have come to the conclusion that you have about 3 different designs / color schemes that you have used since the site has been up, and just haven't fully migrated every page to the latest look. (The latest look I think is the best).

Content on the site seems pretty good, I didn't read into it too deep but I did bookmark the site to check it out more later.

Hope this information helps!
