I was trying to make my site like a store but using affiliate marketing links from cj.com.
My page is about inexpensive domain registration, domain names, and registering website. http://network.modawg36.com/
Most E-Commerce sites are using a premade “CMS” that specializes in e-Commerce. They are most likely using a template that was premade but edited to their liking. I think the best route for you would be to do just this. Install a CMS e-Commerce script and edit a premade template to your liking.
yes, if you have no experience in making e-commerce sites, the best way would be to use a e-commerce template with some e-ecommerce plugins. For example you could use wordpress with woocommerce, or some other combination.
wordpress is great for developing the ecommerce web site development. You should use ecommerce template with some ecommerce plugins this would be nice experience for you to design the site.
I designed a website for my friend few day ago. I bought word-press theme for eCommerce website because there many plugin available. You should try and you can check eCommerce theme. <snip>
Just as a left-field suggestion (though it may not apply to affiliate links so much), how about using Facebook as your ecommerce store? It’s easier than having to setup/customise a CMS and depending on your target audience, it obviously is more geared to attracting ‘social’ traffic.
