Problem:
The client has a travel blog in Dutch and uses WPML to translate articles into English on the same site. They are considering creating a new website exclusively for the English content and are inquiring whether the WPML Export and Import function can be used to write an article in Dutch on one site and then create a translation to be shown on a new .com website.
Solution:
We explained that the WPML Export and Import add-on is designed for importing or exporting content between WordPress sites. However, WPML is intended to work within a single WordPress installation. If the client wishes to use custom domains for different languages, they can do so without needing separate WordPress installations. We provided documentation on how to use WPML with different domains per language:

• WPML Export and Import documentation
• Using WPML with different domains per language
