no they sty in one spot
Because hot spots remain pretty much stationary within the earth, so as the tectonic plates move over them, they create a chain or line of volcanic islands that show the direction the plate has moved over the stationary hotspot.
Hot spots begin at where 2 plates move apart
The hot spots occur around the edges of tectonic plates as they grind, move or slide past each other. One plate will be pushed down into the mantle and heats up. This creates molten rock and forces capable of forming volcanoes. Mark the sites of volcanoes and the edges of the plates can be mapped.
Hot spots do not create or destroy oceanic or continental crust. Hot spots are volcanic regions that are stationary relative to moving tectonic plates. As the plates move over the hot spot, they experience volcanic activity, which can result in the formation of volcanic islands or seamounts, but the crust itself is not created or destroyed in the process.
Hot spots in Earth produce volcanic activity, creating regions of intense heat and magma upwelling from deep within the mantle. This can result in the formation of volcanic islands, like the Hawaiian Islands, as tectonic plates move over the stationary hot spot.

Most hot spots are located well into tectonic plates. There is no real pattern of distribution.

the hot magma moves around and they move.
No. About 10% of volcanoes on Earth form at hot spots away from late boundaries. Additionally, the planets Venus and Mars and Jupiter's moon Io have volcanoes but do not appear to have tectonic plates.

the hotspots of volcanoes are when they are near tectonic plates when diverting or coliding
Hot spots are located below Earth's surface. They are stationary points where magma from the mantle plume rises and creates volcanic activity. Over time, as tectonic plates move, hot spots can create chains of volcanic islands on the Earth's surface.
Metamorphism typically occurs at convergent boundaries, where tectonic plates collide, and at divergent boundaries, where plates move apart. It also occurs at transform boundaries, where plates slide past each other horizontally. Metamorphism can also occur at hot spots, where magma from the mantle rises to the surface.

hot spots are stationary and the plate move over it. this leaves a chain of volcanoes as the plates are moving. the volcanoes get younger as you approach the active hot spot. date the islands and you will know the speed of the plates
