Nsikak udoh,

You might want to go back and watch the video again if you are having some trouble with the tags. I had to go back on a few videos myself, but then I saw something I missed and have that aha moment. Below is how to select your <h1> tag, and change the color to purple. Hopefully that helps.

h1 {
  color: purple;
}
