You can't, there are no "hidden links". You have to identify your users, which means credentials or knowing their IP address.

You have to identify the person you invited. Then, based on the identification you can show him/her different content. This content can contain a "hidden" link which the other users don't see. The cheapest, fastest, dirtiest and most insecure way to do this is to send a link around to your invitees looking for example like this: http://your-website.com/?invited=yes Then you can use a script on your website to check if "invited" is part of the URL and if it is set to yes, and if so display the hidden link (for example, you could use http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.get.php). So if you don't have really sensitive content behind the hidden link and / or can manage to keep the invitation-URL a secret, then use this solution.
