In addition to what Julian was saying about saving your work and then refreshing your workspace to see the results, I've noticed that you're missing the necessary HTML and BODY tags necessary for your webpage to work.
The opening HTML tag should be placed immediately after the <!DOCTYPE html> tag, while the closing HTML tag should be at the very bottom of your file.
The BODY tag should be just underneath where your header ends, and the closing BODY tag should be placed just before your footer begins.
These different "container" elements help your web browser to make sense of which part of the webpage is which.
Hope this helps. :)
