I can't get my resume link to work

I am on the introduction to HTML & CSS and I have followed the video to make my resume html to spec but when i try and go to the /resume.html it gives me the 404 not found error page. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I have saved every step and still have no idea why it will not work. Please someone help!!!!

What does your code look like, what is your directory structure and where is resume.html?

Dave here is what it looks like so far:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Scott Taylor's Resume</title>
  </head>
  <body>
      <img src="http://placeimg.com/200/200/any" alt="Scott Taylor, Web Developer">
      <h1>Scott Taylor, Web Developer</h1>
      <h2>Summary of Qualifications</h2>
      <ul>
          <li>Experience as a freelance web developer</li>
          <li>Experience with HTML, CSS, JavaScript</li>
          <li>Certified Medical Assistant</li>
      </ul>
     </body>
</html>

and in the video she says to add /resume.html to the profile page. Here is what my browser is showing: http://port-80-5ha7njs5gr.treehouse-app.com/resume.html

Scott is your code in an html file, does it have a name and location, are you working locally or in a workspace and then hitting preview?

Is below your profile page - what is it's name, is it index.html and I think you need to add a link to your resume. Where do you want/need to link to be?

 <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Scott Taylor's Resume</title>
  </head>
<body>
  <img src="http://placeimg.com/200/200/any" alt="Scott Taylor, Web Developer">
  <h1>Scott Taylor, Web Developer</h1>
  <h2>Summary of Qualifications</h2>
  <ul>
     <li>Experience as a freelance web developer</li>
     <li>Experience with HTML, CSS, JavaScript</li> 
    <li>Certified Medical Assistant</li>
  </ul> 
</body> 
</html>

I figured it out finally Dave just needed someone to wake my mind up. Sleep deprivation set in on me after burying my father. I had made the R capital on resume when i made my html new file but was using the lower case r in the browser. I fixed it and is working now. Thank you for responding and helping me realize my error and grow some knowledge. You rock my good sir.
