When I visit certain pages, my browser history shows that it has been visited twice when it has not. Why does this happen?

It shows the original website visited in the browser history, but it will also show the same address with what looks like a query string? I do not understand why this happens. Please help!

The part of the URL starting with # may designate an internal part of the page -- that is the traditional usage -- or it might be added by a script in the page for another purposes, such as tracking. It seems to store this information:

parameter name = _ga parameter value = 1.30128573.327507196.1470229624

I don't know what that's for, but "ga" makes me think of Google Analytics, so maybe it's for tracking the links you follow within the site??

It depends. Some websites may send a redirect when you request a page, and other sites may modify the address bar (or create history) as you move around within a page. Are there particular examples that concern you?

An example would be I originally go to this website: http://screengrabber.deadspin.com/road-race-leader-crashes-just-miles-from-finish-1784944615 But then it will show up like this in my history again but with this section:

http://screengrabber.deadspin.com/road-race-leader-crashes-just-miles-from-finish-1784944615#_ga=1.30128573.327507196.1470229624

I am not sure what this means and I was hoping you could help.
