Hi I think that William won the battle of Hastings because he was more organized he was also a better solder and thought against fitting laws. The main reason I think is that William was Lucky. William had lots of men so he kept control of the kingdom after the battle but that's a different answer. com question's .
The most important reason for the Battle of Hastings was to determine who would be ruler of England. In the battle, William I, or Wiliam the Conqueror defeated Harold Godwinson and became King of England.
In conclusion, the main reason that William won is due to him preparing himself and his army with Calvary, good weapons and many trained soldiers. Luck was also a part of him winning because if the wind didn't change William might not have been able to cross for weeks so Harold could have become King of England. Although, William deserved to win as he had put the most preparation, effort and thought into the Battle compared to Harald and Harold.
William and the Normans found it difficult at first because the saxon were positioned uphill and they were downhill This was one reason, but the Saxon Wall could not be penetrated, as a Norman said, 'The dead held up the living.'

They were fighting to be the king of England
The Battle of Hastings in 1066, wasn't fought in Hastings. It was fought eight miles north of Hastings at Senlac Hill on the site of where the town of Battle is now. William the Conqueror, built a large church to celebrate his victory over the Anglo-Saxon army and called it Battle Abbey. A town developed close to the Abbey and was named after the Abbey. For some obscure reason, English people are proud of the fact that they were soundly beaten in the battle, even naming the local medical facility 'Conquest Hospital'.
The Normans won the battle of Hastings because less than 3 weeks before England fought in another battle against the Vikings, but remember they didn't have vehicles but only there legs so after that battle England had to walk from the North to the South of the country so England were very warn out when it came to the battle of Hastings. So that's properly the reason why the Normans won the battle of Hastings!

The battle of stamford bride which was Harold II Vs Harold hadrada some say the reason he didnt win the battle of hastings was becasue his army had to march 1000 miles up and down the country and his army were all tired and didnt have the strenght to fight although they did win the battle of stamford bridge After defeating Harold Hadrada at the hard fought Battle of Stamford Bridge, Harold Goodwinson's forces had to make a forced march across the width of England to meet William the Conqueror at the Battle of Hastings, just days later. His troops arrived at the battle exhausted.
king Harold was not prepared for the battle but the Normandy were well prepared. the reason why king Harold was not prepared was that he had another battle before the battle of Hastings.After he won the battle of Stamford bridge that was between him and Harald hadrada, he got to know that the Normandy had arrived England and he had to march 226 miles(363 km) for another battle. king Harold had lost his best men in the war and part of Harold's men were left behind on the way for the battle of Hastings. he also didn't have enough weapons.while king Harold was fighting in the battle of Stamford bridge, the Normandy built a castle. they had enough weapons and had men on horseback so the Normandy were really prepared and that's the reason why the Normandy won the battle of Hastings and that's the reason why William, duke of Normandy became the king of England
