Getting metrics to track how many hits a link has gotten

Is it possible to get metrics to track how many hits a link has gotten or is getting?  Every 2 weeks we replace a communication piece under the Custom Link section for workers to access, it would be great to know how many times the document has been opened.

Note, there is the idea on the Salesforce site for this (posted 6 years ago): https://success.salesforce.com/ideaView?id=08730000000Brd7AAC

You can try using a custom button instead of a custom link and use javascript to count and store in a custoom field somewhere:
