I am in the process of developing an email tracking module that will
track links initiated on by the recipient of the email broadcast. Each
link with be associated with an ID and tracked back to a landing page in
which I can increment counters for that particular link


My question is what is the best performance option to run a counter in
the database for each link. Should I just increment one column every
time?


OR


Should I trigger the action to another table which will add an new row
with the LINKID each time it is incremented? Then I could get the result
by running a statement like this: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM TABLE WHERE
LINK_ID = 1


Hope this makes sense. Thx for your help.
