Please see the support documentation entry for an offsite redirect upgrade. > http://en.support.wordpress.com/site-redirect/

I expect that's not hard to do, but the problem is the incoming links to the present blogs. Can we apply 301 permanent redirects from the old WordPress.com blog pages to the new locations under her own domain? We don't want to lose the link popularity of her blogs and don't want all the incoming links to suddenly generate 404 Page Not Found errors.
