Cannot figure out how to "Change the color of the h1 tag to purple."

Not sure what I am doing here. I think I am missing something very obvious. I need to get past this quiz, its driving me crazy. Put in class= etc. and tried to link in style sheet with now luck. Any direction would be awesome!

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

you could also create style tag in html as well.

<style>
h1 {color:purple;}

</style>
