Well IMHO it is PostgreSQL related as you are both offering a PostgreSQL
product. It is not
uncommon to do something like this as a keyword on Google Adwords or

to place a direct URL....

I would call it fairly shady. I am guessing that by doing so they are
getting placement within search
engines or something.
