Make sure you're not including `<aside>` inside `<main>`.

First check for overlapping elements, which is not allowed. Any element that begins inside another element must end before the outer element does. For example:

    <main> <article> </main> </article>    <!-- overlap! (not allowed) -->
    <main> <article> </article> </main>    <!-- no tag overlap (OK) -->

Then check tag nesting. On a simple page such as this, you would probably not have an <article> inside an <aside>, or vice-versa.

And re-check the task instructions. For example, didn't they ask for some container to be put around the social media section?
