Hi Sana,

the <main> element is meant to wrap the whole content between the closing </header> tag and the opening <aside> tag...

So your closing </main> tag is not quite at the correct position. Do you see what I mean when you relook at your code?

And then I see your second closing </article> tag is a little too far below. You have to put it at the end of the second article - after the second paragraph / before the "Follow me on Social Media" heading...

Generally it is also a very good idea to pay attention to correct indentation. Your line indentation is a bit out of order, which makes it a little more difficult for yourself and others to read. Correct indentation is not necessary for the display in the browser but for every person reading the code it makes it more difficult to read.

Don't hesitate to ask if you don't understand any of what I am talking. :-)

Happy coding!

Nils
