What does it mean "Don't forget a header tag?"

I've entered: <header> <h1>Blah Blah</h1> </header>

Says I still need to add a header tag

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title> Title Element <title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <h1>Header Tag</h1>
      <h2>Blah</h2>
    </header>
    <section></section>
    <footer></footer>
  </body>
</html>

I think you have not properly closed title tag that is why it is showing this error.

Check your </title>

Hi Hannah,

There is an issue with your code however there is also an issue with the challenge.

Your closing <title> tag isn't closed correctly. It should be </title>. See code below for complete answer:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <!-- Added closing tag and removed white space -->
    <title>Title Element</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <h1>Header Tag</h1>
      <h2>Blah</h2>
    </header>
    <section></section>
    <footer></footer>
  </body>
</html>

The challenge shouldn't of let you pass the step where you added the title element.
