You need to modify the above method and then paste it in your Apex class.

Then after on you VF page associated with that class you have to call this method by using following syntex
<apex:form>
<apex:commandButton action="{!convertToCustomObject" value="Convert To Custom Object" />
</apex:form>

It depends on what fields are required on your custom object you want to convert in and what fields value you want from your standard object into you custom object.

For example.

If you want to convert a Account object records to your custom Account then you need to do some thing like below example.

public void convertToCustomObject() {
 Account acc = [Select Name,AccountNumber from Account where id = '001XXXXXXXX' ] ;
 MyCustomAccount__c customAccount= new MyCustomAccount__c (Name=acc.Name,AccountNumber__c = acc.AccountNumber ) ;
 insert customAccount ;


}
