You can use this code :
<a href="https://asktofolks.com/" onclick="window.open('#','_blank');window.open(this.href,'_self');">Open a new tab in background</a>
Here when you will click on this link , this will open a new tab with current page and previous tab will open with new link (https://asktofolks.com/) .
This will help you, in case any query pls let me know.
just put a link in href attribute which url you want to open on click . <a href="https://google.com/" onclick="window.open(URL); self.focus();"><h1>Click</h1></a>
