STEP 1: Create a conversion page

To track external clicks, we need a special page that lets us record the click, then redirect the user to the external URL.

On this page, insert the AB test Conversion Module and associate it to your test.

Insert an HTML module, and add the below basic redirect script

<script>
setTimeout(function(){
  window.location = 'https://newurl.com'; // your redirect URL
},2000); // 2000 = 2 second delay
</script>
