While you can achieve a neat, professional looking page layout using XSitePro’s Page Layout settings, one of the mistakes often made by people designing their sites is thinking that the page design is in some way constrained to the tightly defined, rectangular spaces on the page.

 

In reality, while the different panels can usefully serve distinctly different purposes (navigation, testimonials or sales copy, for example) there is no reason why you can’t blend the different panels together within your page design.
