How do I make the <h1> purple?

How should it look? I can't seem to get it right and the hints are getting less and less helpful as I learn.

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

    <h1>{
      color:purple
      } Welcome to My Web Page!</h1>

  </body>
</html>
styles.css

One way to make the h1 tag purple is by putting style tags in the body and writing CSS inside those style tags:

<style>
  h1 {
    color: purple;
  }
</style>

I hope this helps!
