Additional spacing betwen homepage custom components

I've developed a VisualForce page which I'm adding as a Salesforce homepage component. It all works fine. The only issue is that from a layout persepctive, there's not enough room vertically between one component and the next  and the content in my VF compoent (which are links) are not starting from the top of the component but lower down. Therefore it could be easy for the user to miss. I'm attaching screenshot of the compoentn and my VisualForce page code is below. If any additional coding is required to enhance, I would appreciate if someone can provide this for me as I'm a salseforce admin and don't know much of development language. You'll see that my first screenshot has the link Passwords:SouthAfrica at the bottom of the component. I'd like it further up to allow room t view additional links. My second screeshot (with the "sanctuary" link includes to links where you need to scroll down to view because there's not enough room on the component. The size of this component is too small if I can't fit at least 3 links without having to scroll. How can i make it so that we can enlarge it to fit three links?

Thank you, Deepak. Would you be able to send it without the row numbers so I could copy paste it directly?

Hover this code window and click on view source icon and then you can copy the code from popup window.

Hi Deepak:
The first link now does appear further up however, I'm not able to see more than two line's worth of links without scrolling. is there any we can make it so that I could see three row's worth without having to scroll?
Deepak GulianDeepak Gulian

Try to edit the value of height in home page component.
