if you look at my Predict the lottery site in my sig you will see a navigation menu and a google skyscraper ad, that is what i mean by a side bar. Something that gives the page more substance and allows more space for other things than text. You might even consider 2 side bars, one on each side. Fill them with relevent ads, affiliate links, and do link exchanges with similar sites. Trust me it will make the site look better at the same drive traffic and revenue
