Abstract
A computer implemented method and an apparatus for determining user browsing behavior are provided. One or more web pages corresponding to a web domain are configured by associating the one or more web pages with tags. A control file is downloaded on a user device when a first web page access by a user to a tagged web page from among the one or more tagged web pages is detected. The control file facilitates recording of user activity related to a web domain on one or more tabs of a web browser associated with the user device. Recorded user activity corresponding to at least one web browsing session is received and user browsing behavior is determined based on the recorded user activity.
