Change the H1 to the color purple

Still not sure what I'm doing wrong.

index.html 
<!doctype html>
<html>
  <head>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet">
  </head>
  <body>

    <h1>class= "location"> Welcome to My Web Page!</h1>

  </body>
</html>
styles.css 
.location
{color: purple;)

Close, but you need to target the h1 tag in your CSS selector (no need to add a class).

Using the class as target would work (but maybe not pass the challenge) if you remove the stray > between the tag name and the class.
