WordPress.com versus WordPress.org WPBeginner Information Websites
-
Several months ago, with the assistance of my daughter who helped me create a Blog Site titled https://mabuhayusveterans.wordpress.com/ , which is designed for U.S. Veterans that are searching for answers that pertain to “How to Make a Successful Move to the Philippines?”, that when an individual is searching for answers on the internet BEFORE going on a Forum Page, that they need specific answers pertaining to a WordPress.com Site, that aren’t indicated (as what I would have initially expected)?
What I am referring to is WPBeginners Sites (which may be well written, such as: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/display-different-sidebar-for-each-post-and-page-for-wordpress/), only to find out half way down the article, I am being re-directed to a different site (https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-custom-sidebars/) that suggests that you upload “Plug-ins”, which as we all know that have .com sites, doesn’t work. (NOTE: Ever since I first created my Blog Site a couple of months ago, I have noticed this quite a bit and to me, it’s quite disturbing.) In the course of my life time, I have written many articles (some of which I am now re-writing and posting on my Blog Site titled https://mabuhayusveterans.wordpress.com/). When I honorably served in the Air Force for more than 20-years, I was always informed by my “Ranking Superior Officers” whenever writing an article, that you must first identify who you’re intended clientele will be and, what you are trying to convey, by making a simple statement “at the top of the page”, that indicates, for example: “The following information is ONLY for WP Customers with a WordPress.com Site.” or, “The following information is ONLY for WP Customers with a WordPress.org Site.”?
To me, nothing could be worse, than NOT identifying whom the article that you have just written doesn’t state in the “Heading” which intended client the article pertains to (which of course, can be a waste of someone’s time, after researching whatever they had hoped to have located on the internet, turns out quite the opposite of where they wound up.)So, if WordPress has been around such a long time, why isn’t there someone within WordPress reading what they wrote and ensuring that it’s getting to the correct intended recipients?

WordPress.com has no authority nor time nor people to follow up all the sites writing about WordPress. But WordPress.com has an excellent support section where you find all info regarding WordPress.com, https://wordpress.com/support/
