Make sure the section element is between the header and footer. Write like this problem why?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <header>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <title>My Portfolio</title>
  </header>
  <body>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Work</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>            
    </ul>
    <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Portfolio!</h1> 
    <p>A site featuring my latest work.</p>
    <section>
    <h2>Welcome</h2> 
    <p>Fusce semper id ipsum sed scelerisque. Etiam nec elementum massa. Pellentesque tristique ex ac ipsum hendrerit, eget feugiat ante faucibus.</p>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">Recent project #1</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Recent project #2</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Recent project #3</a></li>     
    </ul>
    </section>
<footer>
    <p>&copy; 2017 My Portfolio</p>
    <p>Follow me on <a href="#">Twitter</a>, <a href="#">Instagram</a> and <a href="#">Dribbble</a></p>
  </footer>
  </body>
</html>

You have your <header> enclosing your <link> and <title> elements. A <head> element would normally go there. The challenge asks you to put your <header> below the first <body> tag and close it out after the first <p> tag. With the way the challenge progresses this would put your <section> element opening beneath the closing </header> and closing above the opening <footer>. It appears that this is what is causing this problem. Hope this helps!

A typical problem, but this is normal, in the process of creating a site https://grillguru.org/ we often had such trifles. With practice and time, you become more attentive.
