    First,website (or just one page) built in WYSIWYG editor (I mean in visual mode) can never be even close to functional and well-looking hand-coded one. Just for one reason: when you code, you know what you do.
    Frontpage (again, in visual mode) is good for 1-page sites or html documents, but not more than that.
    Anyway, you did a nice job, and it looks pretty great for first site, but you'd better to start learning HTML/CSS, if you want your sites to work correctly in browsers.

    As for your problem, text (and counters) height just raise footer background limits (49px).
    You could remove <br/> tags between links in your footer code and counters to get them showed in one line.

    On your articles page, there is just no counters code. And height of the footer set as 24px.

    you can change it by editing this line:
    
      	<div id="footer" style="width: 998px; height: 24px">
    
    Code (markup):
