In View

@Html.ActionLink("Register", "Signup", "Account", null, new { @class = "call-to-action", id = "registerLink" })

Controller

  [ActionName("Signup")]
    public ActionResult Register() 
    {
        return View();
    }

it shows Signup.cshtml , Signup.aspx , Signup.ascx no file is found – Umang Patwa Jul 20 '16 at 11:50
in `return view()` you have to provide View path or create corresponding view for this action method – mmushtaq Jul 20 '16 at 12:09

Why are you putting an ActionName data annotation over the actual action?

In order to get this to work, all you need to do is:

HTML:

@Html.ActionLink("Register", "Register", "Account", null, htmlAttributes: new { @class = "call-to-action", id = "registerLink" })</li>

Controller:

//no need for data annotation
public ActionResult Register() 
{
    return View();
}

Let me know if this helps.
