More than likely, this happened because the web address you typed in is actually owned by the site you ended up with. For example, at the date of this writing, if you typed in www.Grandma.com, you would expect to go to a site that maybe focuses on gardening, quilting or cooking something related to grandmothers, right? Instead, you end up at the 1-800-Car-Loan website. That’s because the company that owns the 1-800-Car-Loan site, also owns the www.Grandma.com web address. They have “directed” their grandma.com address to the CarLoan.com website to hopefully sell you a car loan. Note: The best way for you to find a website about grandmas and grandma-related websites is to conduct a search on one of the search engines (Google.com, Yahoo.com, etc.). The results from these search engines are certain to help you find what you’re looking for.
