You are missing your double quotes on your class attribute on the p element. You have also got your syntax incorrect on your CSS. Try this:

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

    <p class="main-pg">My amazing website</p>

  </body>
</html>
.main-pg {
  border: 4px red;
}
