    This cannot be answered in few words, Because this depends on the types of website you want to move, if it is some static pages, just download all and upload it to the root folder .that is public.html. You you are moving a cms, probably you will need to move its back-end software and database files. I will explain this with a wordpress site.I will point you the outline of moving and you can get complete information using the link provided at the end.

    Take a back of your existing data. that is wp-content folder & database .
    Upload all wordpress files to the new server including wp-content. You can download the other files except wp-content folder from wordpress official site.
    Create a new data base to new server.
    Import mysql database tables to the new database
    Now configure wp-config files with new db name and password.
    Now update the name server of your domain of new server. thats it

    Hey there!
    Transferring a website from one host to another is a time-consuming process that requires patience and perseverance. However, when a website transfer is successful, it means that your website is moved to a new host with minimal downtime and that it is completely operational.
    Using this method, it is possible to guarantee that your website is successfully migrated from any host to your new host with zero or little downtime.
    1. Add your domain name to your new host.
    2. Move your site’s files using FTP.
    3. Export your site’s database from your old host.
    4. Create a new database and import it to your new host.
    5. Update configuration details if needed.
    6. Test your site.
    7. Move custom email addresses.
    8. Update your domain’s nameservers.

    Hey, is there any way to retrieve the details if you've lost them? I seem to be having a lot of trouble while making my hosting support understand that i own the site.
