I have been using org-publish a lot lately and it works pretty well.
One thing that you might want to consider is to publish to a directory
on your local disk and then use an external utility (e.g., your
script) to synchronize with the web server.

The problem I have found with directly setting :publishing-directory
to a remote machine in org-publish-project-alist is that when there
are several files the publishing process becomes very slow (several
minutes) and emacs completely locks up for that time :(

Perhaps Bastien has some advice on how this can be improved. I think
the problem is with tramp rather than org-mode. I currently work
around the problem by publishing to a local directory and then using
"make" and "rsync" to synchronize with the web server.

Cheers
