Are there only cookies?
It may be that some websites use other forms of storage similar to cookies but which can store a larger amount data, like other forms of data local storage on the client’s computer, for example:
HTML5 LocalStorage and sessionStorage: Space that the website can take up on the user's device. They can be usually deleted by deleting the browsing history.
"Local Shared Objects" in Flash ("isolated storage" in Silverlight): They are stored inside the Microsoft folder where the user profile is. You have to navigate to the folder and delete it. (E.g.: vimeo videos).
Flash is used to incorporate multimedia elements to a website, and in order to do that, it stores files in the user's device.
A web beacon is used to track your activity, by inserting a mini image that the user doesn’t even notice. When you browse the web, it’s loaded along with the website, and the server where the photo is downloaded from, records the access time or how many times you have accessed it.
