Why did you create the ID "logo" instead of simply selecting the header directly?

Benefits of using ID's?

Hi Valerie,

He actually applied the logo id to an anchor element inside the header element. There are also three other anchor elements inside the header section. The id was applied to single out that particular anchor.
