Yola offers a wide selection of Page Styles,  close to 200 of which are free, plus another 40 or so "premium styles".  The "Style" defines the page header, the menu layout and the page background.  Some styles allow substitution of your own image or colour scheme into the header and/or the back ground, others do not.  I've made such changes in my other two sites, but left this one as a Yola standard.

The style can be changed at any time, even after you've built your web page.

Some Yola styles offer fixed width (their page height extends as you add content).  A consequence of this is that wide-screen monitors will show blank background at the sides, whereas a narrow monitor screen might require horizontal scrolling.  An examples is CleanSlate which I used  for both my Nepal and Rotary sites.

Others offer variable formatting whereby the text moves to fit the space available.  The one chosen for this website - "Capsicum Green" - is an example.

Different styles give you different amounts of "usable" space.   For my other sites I chose styles with horizontal menus.  This one has a vertical side menu, which does mean that you lose the space below it.

Yola only offers simple, single level menus.  While some people may consider this a constraint, there are ways to work around it.  You can include page links in your text, effectively creating another menu.  I've done this at my Nepal site, adding a duplicate menu at the foot of most pages to save returning to the top.

A Yola Style Guide Table offers selection filters to choose the style you want.  Options are:
Free or Premium; Custom Banner (insert your own image); Edit background (otherwise fixed by the style); Top, Bottom, Left or Right menu; Colour palettes (meaning that the one style comes in a variety of colour combinations).  Surprisingly, the table does not indicate whether a style is a fixed or variable format.

Another setup option you have is Page Layout.  Various combinations are available, including single, double and triple column.  This page is "single over triple".

 This is the first of the triple columns. Most websites you visit have multiple columns, but personally I find the simplicity of a single column more attractive than the distractions of several.

 Here we are in the second column.  One of the limitations I find with Yola's column layouts is that the column widths are fixed.  As a layout, I can't make a wider centre column and narrower side columns.

And so to the third column where I can say that rather than using "Layout" to achieve columns, I prefer the "Column Divider" widget.  You can nest these inside each other to achieve as many columns as you wish, and you can adjust the column widths.  You can also revert to a single column under the divided part.  So I find they make page setup much more flexible.
