    Hi,

    Here is some information about how to import your site to wordpress.com

    Hi there!

    We do provide SSL (https) for all the sites/blogs that we host here on WordPress.com; it’s automatically issued as long as the domain is correctly pointing here. We have more information here:

    Secure Your Domain With SSL

    Further to what ryrhino00 mentioned above, we do actually have a “Built By WordPress.com” service which can help to move your content over:
    https://builtbywp.com/?utm_campaign=happiness

    I see that your site https://knowledge-cess.com/ uses the Twenty Sixteen theme, which we do of course also offer.

    One thing I should note is that if you do want to have plugins on your site, then you’ll want a Business plan rather than a Premium plan, as the Business plan enables plugin usage on WordPress.com. If you don’t feel that you need plugins, then the Premium plan is a great option! Looking at your current site, it looks like you’re focused on informative blogging; I haven’t had a chance to look through all of it but it doesn’t seem like you’d need plugins at this time, if you do decide to move to WordPress.com.

    In case it’s useful, we have a comparison of the different plan features here:

    That said, now would be a great time to move if you do wish to do so – we have some Black Friday offers on for new plan purchases, and even for our Built By WordPress.com services. You can find the full details here:
