Your question is incredibly vague but I can tell you what you're doing wrong.

You probably have your <footer>tag outside of your <body> tag.

<!DOCTYPE HTML>

<html>
    <head>
    </head>

    <body>
    </body>

    <footer>
    </footer>

</html>

So you probably have something that looks similar to that, however it should look like this:

<!DOCTYPE HTML>

<html>
    <head>
    </head>

    <body>
        <footer>
        </footer>
    </body>
</html>

The <footer> tag should be within the <body> tag

Hope that helps.
