Verify you are uploading the correct folder contents to the correct destination directory.
Confirm the folder name/path matches the required project naming convention before sharing the URL.

Tips for Efficiency
Keep the source folder and destination folder open side by side in WinSCP to speed up uploads.
Double-check the HTML placement before saving to avoid reopening the file later.
Use the same folder naming convention each time to reduce confusion.
After upload, immediately test the site so any issues can be corrected while the files are still fresh in memory.
Copy the final URL right away and store it in your project notes or task tracker.
