  Hi, silvianaoloan!

  If I understand, you would like to widen your content-area.

  Right now your blog info has a max width of 140pixels and content area inside (left column in which your post are has a 705px). You can fix those widths in pixels or % of the total width. If you would like to widen these areas in 200px, for instance, you should need to put the following css code in the customize section of your dashboad:

  .site {max-width:1340px}
  .content-area {width: 905px}

  (CSS customisation is a feature of the WordPress.com Premium and WordPress.com Business plans)

  Hope this helps you.

  Have a nice day.
