Go to web site vs Go onto web site (Which one is correct?) I would like to know how I should say when I am talking about VISITING a web site, "go to web site" or "go onto web site." Examples: 1. I have to go TO/ONTO Facebook. 2. I have to go TO/ONTO Gmail. 3. I have to go TO/ONTO Google. 4. I have to go TO/ONTO LinkedIn. Also, when I am talking about mobile apps such as Whatsapp, Telegram, etc. How should I say? 5. I have to go TO/ONTO Whatsapp. 6. I have to go TO/ONTO Telegram. One last question, when I am talking with someone via messages on a web site or a mobile app, how should I say in the following context? 7. You can send me the document HERE/ON HERE, not by email. 8. You can tell me about your problem HERE/ ON HERE. it is not necessary for you to call me.

I am not totally sure if any standard as yet been established. But we usually say "on" "on Facebook" "on wechat" "on whatsapp" "on instagram" "on Skype" for explain you have to go "on face book" etc we say "I have to log on to Facebook" TWO separate words or "I have to log into Facebook" "you can tell me the problem here on (Facebook) or wherever, it is not necessary to call me. "You can send the document to me here" is more natural "you can send it here" is fine = short street talk, without the full grammatical sentence taught in schools.
