here's a screenshot

The CSS file is in the same folder as the HTML file and I've put in the exact name in the href part. 

Here's my CSS.

```
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="index.css">
</head>

```

Answer: 
Without more accurate specification, we can try to solve generally all troubles. These are my advices. 
1 Be careful saving your files before uploading. 

2 Link stylesheet with relative paths like the posts before. 

3 add ‘file version’ of your css script. In this way your browser will reload all css styles. (Very important for you and all your user in future when editing templates)
Simply add this in link stylesheet html tag 

```
version=1.3

```

And change values every time you edit css and upload files

4 *testing css* you could test your css working with `element inspector` of your browser.

Hope it will be useful!
I think you did not save your project(blue Dot on the tab). First save your project by Ctrl+S and the review the page.
