White space is the space between the designed factors like contents, hyperlinks, images, banners and advertisements. The basic goal of the white space is to differentiate the different elements on the web page. By using white space the users or visitors can easily scan the website. It gives opportunity to users to read the information easily form the website. It also helps to draw the attention of the users or visitors on a particular element of the page.

Hello..
Whitespace is simply the empty space between and around the elements of a design or page layout. This can include: space around graphics and images, margins and gutters, space between columns, and even the space between lines of type. Whitespace is also referred to as "negative space".
Its importance is that Simply by increasing the space between elements in a layout, a design can take on a more elegant appearance, and by injecting more whitespace into a web design's, content becomes more legible.
Thnx....:)
