  Hi,

  When people ask about moving their websites to WordPress when do I as a volunteer use each of these links?

  I see some answers to people’s questions about moving their site answered by the first two links below that is why I am asking.

  https://transferto.wordpress.com/

  https://move.wordpress.com/

  Moving to Self-Hosted WordPress
  If you have a site hosted with us at WordPress.com and are thinking of moving to a self-hosted WordPress site (WordPress.org), we’ve put together this guide to help you along the way.

  That means to use the move.wordpress.com link when someone wants to move their .com site to .org? Is that the only time to use that link?

  Most of the time when I am answering others questions about transferring or mapping or moving their site to WordPress I use these links.

  Thanks for your help.

  Those last two links refer to moving/pointing a domain address. The other links refer to moving the actual content of a site.
