Sounds like you need to have a line of code in the controller's view method 
that calls a simple model function:

$this->Model->increment($id);

In the model:

function increment($id) {
        $this->updateAll(array('Model.view_count' => 'Model.view_count+1'), 
array('Model.id' => $id));
}

Or you could just call it directly from the view method in the controller:

$this->Model->updateAll(array('Model.view_count' => 'Model.view_count+1'), 
array('Model.id' => $id));

This way, whenever the view method is called (in other words, each time the 
page is rendered) you increment the view_count field by one.
