try this:

1. Go to customer accountcontroller find _welcomeCustomer method.
2. Search for

$successUrl = $this->_getUrl('//index', array('_secure' => true));

replace this code with your custom URL

$successUrl = $this->_getUrl('customURL', array('_secure' => true));

*where is customURL input the page that you want the redirection to be made.
