Hey Guys! I need a little help with Challenge Task 2 of Intro to HTML and CSS

I'm trying to change the color of my h1 line to purple but I have no idea how. I tried to do it like this: ''' <h1> <font color=purple> Welcome to My Webpage! </f></h1> ''' And while this did make my text purple, apparently it's not the correct way. Can someone show me the proper way to do this (without placing tags in my header line)? Thanks! Btw, here's my full code:

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

<h1> Welcome to My Web Page!</h1>

</body> </html> '''

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

    <h1> Welcome to My Web Page!</h1>


  </body>
</html>
styles.css
