    I was just checking my logs and had a few hits for 'longest url' I checked but was not listed, but at position #9 was www. geekissues. org/c/92009
    When clicked it went straight to my page. I thank them, but how?

    People can post any link they want on geekissues.org. the /c/somenumber URL is their forwarding script that redirects you to the linked-to page. Someone posted a link to your site :)

    Great, thanks for the info, so a link beats out my page in the SE ranking.
