Redoing home page but changes not taking effect

I assume you are not editing the proper template file. Editing the home page can be a bit tricky in WordPress, some times. WordPress uses different templates depending on the situation to render the home. These templates can be:

front-page.php // Overrides all
home.php // For latest posts
page.php // For static pages as homepage
index.php // If none of the above exist

There is a good post here by @Rarst, deeply explaining the hierarchy.

Also, you can check the WP-Hierarchy Out for further information.
