By default, git-push only pushes matching branches (those that exist
both in the local and remote repos). What you want to do might be

   git push website experimental

if you want to create the branch 'experimental', or if your deployment
system only checks out the 'master' branch, you might find

    git push website experimental:master

useful. In this case you may have to force-push master again, which is
not recommended (though in your case it might be fine). You can find
more details about how to specify which branches you want to push in
the git-push manpage.
