Actually you can do this by just adding your user ID or Code or whatever you want as a query string in the link itself and configure your page to do whatever you want to if the link has a query string in it

ex: your user ID is 1113
your link would be http://www.yourwebsite.com/reg.aspx?id=1113

then at page load for your register page add the code to check for the query string and add whatever you want either a number of clicks to be increased or soever and beware of Sql injection if you going to use that id directly to the database

Hope this helped
