Abstract
Technologies are generally described for methods and systems effective to determine traffic volume of a domain name server caused by a host domain. In some examples, a host domain may store page view data that relates to page views requested at the domain name server. The host domain may receive a first query for a resource associated with the host domain. The host domain may add an instruction to the resource to produce a modified resource and send the modified resource to a device. The modified resource may generate a second query that may be used to determine traffic volume. The device may receive the modified resource, and generate the second query that includes an identification of the domain name server. The host domain may receive the second query, detect the identification, and update the page view data. The host domain may determine traffic volume based on the page view data.
