Abstract

The disclosure is directed to, among other things, systems and methods for associating website visitors with a sticky dynamic internet protocol (IP) address. An example method may include identifying one or more first web-based cookies associated with a first IP address or one or more first user agents associated with the first IP address as being received by a web server associated with a website. The example method may also include determining a density measurement for the first IP address, the density measurement being a maximum number of the one or more first web-based cookies or the one or more first user agents that are identified as being received at the web server at a single time. The example method may also include determining that the density measurement is less than or equal to a threshold value. The example method may also include determining, based on the density measurement being less than or equal to the threshold value, that the first IP address is a first sticky dynamic IP address.
