It says that I need to add the word portfolio in it. The thing is that I already have it. What em I doing wrong.

This is my code: <nav> <ul> <li> href= "indexnhtml">Portfolio</a></li> <li> href= "about.html">About</a></li> <li> href= "contact.html">Contact</a></li>

        </ul>

      </nav>
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
       <nav>
            <ul>
                  <li> href= "indexnhtml">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li> href= "about.html">About</a></li>
          <li> href= "contact.html">Contact</a></li>

            </ul>

          </nav>
    </header>
    <section></section>

You forgot to a dot/period after your index.html on the first line of your code. That might be the reason .

You forgot to add the anchor tag after the li tag. Like this

 <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
</nav>

Hi Santiago,

You have this: '''<li> href= "indexnhtml">Portfolio</a></li>''', your code should look like '''<li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>'''

Also you need to watch you spelling errors as the browser does not know what to do with indexnhtml, and will not render your landing page.
