The concept of URL/Link tracking is used for numerous things on the internet; one common thing this is used for is marketing campaigns.

When running a marketing campaign it is often times useful to track how many times each of the links used within the campaign were clicked. This information can be used to understand which links were clicked more frequently and can later be used to refine the campaign or give reports on how the campaign did.

This Technical Note describes a general approach of tracking the links for such campaigns. Included with this Technical Note is a sample database that demonstrates the concepts. Also included is an example HTML file to help demonstrate the functionality of the sample database.
