Use an anchor `` and style it with CSS to look like a button. It's what they're made for – j08691 Nov 05 '22 at 18:52

It sounds like you're running into this problem because you tried using the <a> tag with a relative URL as opposed to an absolute one. An absolute URL requires the whole thing, including "http(s)://www.". If you add all of it to the href in the <a> tag, you should be able to redirect externally.
Example if you wanted to redirect to Stack Overflow:
<a href="https://www.stackoverflow.com/" class="button">Stack Overflow</a>
