Try this basic code .

 <button onclick="myFunction()" id="myButton" class="float-left
         submit-button" >Click me to Verify!</button>

         <script> 
             function myFunction() {
                  window.location.href = "http://gotlinks.co/5Vvl"; 
             } 
         </script>

use window.location.href instead

<button onclick="window.location.href = 'http://gotlinks.co/5Vvl';" id="myButton" class="float-left submit-button" >Click me to Verify!</button>
