Add a class called "main-pg" to the paragraph element?

I thought adding this directly to the <p> was the way it was described in the tutorial.

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

    <p>class= "main-pg" >My amazing website</p>

  </body>
</html>
styles.css

Double check your code, it looks like you have a '>' in the middle of your opening paragraph tag.

Try this:

<p class="main-pg">My amazing website</p>
