Blockquote

Hello my friend, you are so close.
Take a look at your html code, then look at your css code. It is the location that you put the css code that is incorrect. If you look at your css code above you use h1, and h2 to be selected and tell what the font family you wanted. So the anchor should be like h1,h2 by itself. not inside of the footer in the css code.

selector

This shows an example.

CSS ruleset anatomy

This shows a great visual structure

I want to say you are doing well. Keep up the great work. Happy coding -Bill

Hey @sridharmadhavan012
You are nesting Your anchor tag selector inside the footer css selector,take it out from there.

Happy coding
