The challenge asked you only to display "Welcome to my site" on the browser and never asked you to log anything to the console, alert anything, or display "Welcome to JavaScript" on the page.
Remember that code challenges are very picky and won't let you pass if you don't do exactly what you ask for. In this case it only asked for you to document.write() "Welcome to my site", but you did all of this mumbo-jumbo it didn't ask for.
All you need to write between the <script> and the </script> is this:
document.write("Welcome to my site");
Also, I just noticed that you wrote some extra code that's not in the <script></script>. You only need to write JavaScript in the <script></script>!
