Hey there,
Happy to help you with this.
It’s totally possible to move the site over to WordPress.com, and we have this plugin here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcom-migration/ to use for that migration. It’s totally automated and very easy to use.
It looks like zubairzahid.com is using installed themes and plugins, and so to import the site as it is now, there would need to be a WordPress.com Business plan in use at WordPress.com:
Once the site is moved, it would then be a case of pointing the domain over to WordPress.com, and the full process can be found here: https://wordpress.com/support/domains/connect-existing-domain/
The domain name servers would need to be changed to:
ns1.wordpress.com
ns2.wordpress.com
ns3.wordpress.comThis would be done at the domain registrar.
Out of curiosity, what has spurred on the move from the current provider to WordPress.com? Is there any information you’re looking for in particular?
Speak soon!
