Whenever I open up my website (bloggermakemoney.com) the browser always redirect me to the previous page.

For an example, when I open bloggermakemoney.com directly, and click one of the post, soon after the post have been loaded the browser redirect me to the homepage.

And when I open up my blog via google, the browser then will take me back to the google search results.

This problem only happen in Firefox, other browsers such as Chrome, Edge, Opera, and android default browser works just fine.

I already tried to do a clean reinstall and it is still the same.

Maybe you guys know what the problem is?

ADDITIONAL NOTE: When using the Private Mode, it works just fine.

I have found the cause of this problem. It was Rocket Loader feature by Cloudflare.

When I turned off the Rocket Loader, the site works just fine. I think the Rocket Loader is breaking down the javascript.

But what makes me wonder is why is this only happening in Firefox? Other browsers can handle it well.

I tried several of the links without a problem. But I did notice a lot of activity with sumome.com.

Have others reported this issue?

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

  • Clear the Cache and
  • Remove Cookies
    Warning ! ! This will log you out of sites you're logged in to.

Type about:preferences<Enter> in the address bar.

  • Cookies; Select Privacy. Under History, select Firefox will Use Custom Settings. Press the button on the right side called Show Cookies. Use the search bar to look for the site. Note; There may be more than one entry. Remove All of them.
  • Cache; Select Advanced > Network. Across from Cached Web Content, Press Clear Now.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} While you are in safe mode;

Type about:preferences#advanced<Enter> in the address bar.

Under Advanced, Select General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.

Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?

Then restart.

Hi Fred, thanks for the reply

I think SumoMe is not the problem since when I deactivated the plugin, it is still the same.

What really bothers me is why it's only happens when I used Firefox in non-private mode.

And yes, I already cleared the cookies and caches, and also when in safe mode, the problem still occurred.

Could it be it's because the ads that runs in my site? I used Google AdSense, if that would help.

Other users have indicated problems with particular websites, and based on the combination of clues, it seems to be a problem with a particular advertising network. On that site, it seems to be an issue with something coming from googlesyndication.com that causes multiple reloads and back actions (see attached screenshot).
