A system for collecting data regarding network behaviors of users is
disclosed. In one embodiment, the system combines session records of
users with corresponding transaction records reflective of e-commerce
transactions. The session records may, for example, be generated by one
or more collection engines deployed by one or more Internet Service
Providers. The transaction records may, for example, be obtained through
interactions with one or more merchant web sites. By combining these two
types of information, the system can, for example, identify a set of user
actions that led to a particular purchase transaction.
