Redirecting to a different page when link is opened in browser
Question
I am really confused on how to create this, so please help me out. I have a html page where I have added the meta fields for link preview on facebook and skype. Now what I want is when I share this link on FB or skype, it should show the link preview with the image I have specified in meta and when the user clicks on the link, this link should open in the browser and then redirected to another link which I am sending through my server using a get request?
How can I do that?
So the link should show meta information on preview and redirected to a new page when loaded in browser
<html>
<meta property="og:image" content="http://example.com"/>
<script type="text/javascript">
function Redirect() {
window.location="http://www.example2.com";
}
Redirect();
</script>
<body>
</body>
</html>

You can't do this directly because you're sharing a link not a webpage. Clicking a shared link will always redirect you to that link.
You could do this, have your redirect logic in your http://example.com By doing this, the user will land in http://example.com and will be redirected automatically to http://example2.com

I was able to do it, by using window.location="www.example1.com". But I am able to preview only the link on FB but not on whatsapp.
