Abstract
Described herein are methods and systems for improved domain name resolution/routing. Routing data associated with domain names (e.g., websites) may be cached by a Domain Name System (DNS) based on historical domain name queries. The historical domain name queries may be analyzed to determine a ranking (e.g., popularity) for the domain names at multiple time intervals throughout a day, week, etc. Routing data for the highest ranked domain names during one or more time intervals may be cached for a period(s) of time corresponding to the one or more time intervals (e.g., times during which those domain names are most popular).
