This web page is difficult to see and navigate. It does not fit the screen so it requires horizontal scrolling, unless the font size is reduced so much you cannot read it. I suggest you use a more conventional web-oriented layout.
This looks like a paper document layout transferred to a screen. In chapter 7 of my book, I described this as imposing the limitations of the old technology on the new. The New York Times once offered an electronic version of the paper patterned to look just like the paper edition, with all the limitations of paper, such as articles that continue on another page. It seemed like a nutty idea to me. Jack Shafer wrote a great description of Times and Washington Post on-line editions that I should quote in chapter 7:
"So why are these electronic editions as comfortable as a fat man trapped in an iron suit designed by a boa constrictor?"
