You can move Azure resources to either another Azure subscription or another resource group under the same subscription. You can use the Azure portal, Azure PowerShell, Azure CLI, or the REST API to move resources. To learn more, see Move resources to a new resource group or subscription.
Do Azure resource groups cost money? The answer to this question is absolute No, There is no price for the Resource Group.
Go to the Resource groups blade in the Azure portal and then navigate to the particular resource group. Step 2 – Click on Move button and then select Move to another subscription option. Step 3 – Next in the resources to move screen, review the resources that are to be moved over which are all automatically selected.
In the Azure portal, open the relevant resource group. In the resource group page, select the resources that you want to move. Select Move > Move to another region. In Source + destination, select the target region to which you want to move the resources.
First I would highly recommend that you read this post from Neil about Affinity Groups: http://convective.wordpress.com/2012/06/10/affinity-groups-in-windows-azure/
Now to answer your questions:
Is there any charges for creating affinity group?
No. As far as I know there's no charge for creating an affinity group. Also there's no limit on how many affinity groups you could create.
Is it desirable to user for Windows Azure Websites & Windows Azure SQL database? (I had found articles for only Virtual Machine & Virtual Network)
As of today, the concept of affinity groups only apply for cloud services (and virtual machines) and storage. It does not apply for Windows Azure Websites and SQL Database. It is recommended that you create all related assets in same affinity group (if applicable) but at all cost in the same data center.
Is there any way to move existing services to newly created affinity group?
Unfortunately no. You would have to delete existing services and recreate them and while you're recreating, you can assign them to the desired affinity groups.
