  What is the difference and what makes more sense for a company that already has their own website?

  Hello @healthcasts!

  With domain mapping – your domain will stay with the current registrar and you’ll need to go to their site to manage anything domain related:

  Domain transfer – You will be moving your domain entirely to WordPress.com and you be managing everything site related to WordPress.com. To transfer you, you need to have owned it for at least 60 days.

  So to answer your question, Domain Mapping vs. Domain Transfer – the choice is absolutely yours. Both methods work just fine.

  I hope this helps, Feel free to respond if you have any more questions relating to the issue 👍

  Have a wonderful day!
