I have tried each tag that has appeared in the videos but it still is not working. Can somebody help me? I must be writing something wrong.

This little "semantic element summary" may help:
-
"a group of introductory content"
<header>
-
"a major section of navigation"
<nav>
-
"the main content of the <body> of the page"
<main>
-
"standalone sections of content"
<section>
-
"self-contained pieces of content"
<article>
-
"content that's indirectly related to the main content of the page"
<aside>
-
"information about the site, copyright data or related links"
<footer>
Other than that, check the instructions carefully and be sure you're placing the container(s) around the correct elements.

1,864 PointsThank you Steven! I probably was not using the container in the correct place.
