CodePudding user response：

You can use LocalStorage instead of cookie:

if(!("visited" in localStorage)){
    localStorage.visited="";
    window.location="https://google.com/";
}

You can use localStorage instead of cookie. It has 5 mb limit of memory per domain. First check if isNewVisitor is null .If the user never visited the site, then set it to true and redirect to you homepage. if the user visits 2nd or 3rd time, it goes else if block and sets isNewVisitor to false.

var homePage= 'www.yourwebsite.com'

if(localStorage.getItem('isNewVisitor') === null){
      localStorage.setItem('isNewVisitor') = true;
      window.location = homepage;

}else if(localStorage.getItem('isNewVisitor')){
 localStorage.setItem('isNewVisitor') = false;
}
