Often, that's down to sites that redirect you from one page to where
they want you to go, in a bad way (e.g. reload the new page at the prior
address, but there's other techniques that do the same thing).  Making
it virtually impossible to go backwards, unless you can go back in your
history, directly, to a page before their redirect started.  Leaving you
with virtually no alternative than to navigate via the links written in
their pages.
