constructive criticism on how I can improve for future websites!
what I 'see' is format errors like missing [ / ] and [ > ] for the most part - I am looking at the source code and not of the page(s) layout or style
where is the file [ Main.css ] ?

here is a link to do your own tests - be sure to check mark the [ Show source ] - it will be highlighted with any errors

see --> [ https://validator.w3.org/nu/?showsource=yes&doc=http://charlieknill.x10host.com/index.html ]

Thanks for the link :) I have taken a look a look at my code using the link and your right. There is a lot of errors. I will try and fix these errors when I get the time. As for the location of the Main.css file I am not too sure where it is. I used various online tutorials to code my website and don't remember a Main.css file.

The only part of your index page that loads on my end is:

Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
   <title>Charlie's Website!</title>
   <meta charset="utf-8"/>
   <link rel="stylesheet" type="tex/css" href="Main.css"
   </head>
   <body>


   </body>
   <h3>This website was coded in Sublime Text 1.4 which can be downloaded <a href="https://www.sublimetext.com/">here</a>
   <h1> Welcome to my website! <h1>
   <u1>
        <li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>
        <li><a href="Aboutme.html">About me</a></li
        <li><a href="Contactme.html">Contact me</a><li>
<u1>

and it has errors that need fixing.
your
Code:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="tex/css" href="Main.css"
should be
Code:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Main.css" />

There should be nothing under the </body> tag except the </html>

and don't forget to add a closing tag <h3></h3>
Also list tags are <ul></ul> or <ol></ol>
This page should look more like this:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
   <title>Charlie's Website!</title>
   <meta charset="utf-8"/>
   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Main.css">
   </head>
   <body>

<h3>This website was coded in Sublime Text 1.4 which can be downloaded <a href="https://www.sublimetext.com/">here</a></h3>
   <h1> Welcome to my website! <h1>

<ul>
        <li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li>
        <li><a href="Aboutme.html">About me</a></li
        <li><a href="Contactme.html">Contact me</a><li>
<ul>

</body>
</html>

Looks like a good start. Coding is hard at first but you catch on quickly. Once you get more proficient in HTML/CSS try adding some dynamic content to your pages.

Thank you for the feedback everyone :) I have now fixed (hopefully) the index page so hopefully there will be no more errors!
