Hi Brandon Schneider

You are very close!! Just missing one small thing.

You've got the order of tags correct, you have the links added correctly... you're just missing the closing anchor tags for the links. You can actually see in the challenge that under the closing list-item tags </li> there are red lines. This is indicating that something is missing on the line before that red line, here it's the closing anchor. The anchor tags are inside the list-item tags, so when that one was closed, it knows that a tag inside hasn't been closed.

For example.

<li><a href="example.com"></a>Example</li>

Hope that helps.
Nice Work!!! :) :dizzy:
