Hi Elly,
Welcome to the forums - I hope you are making yourself quite comfortable around here .

If I read your question correctly, you want to incorporate the products of your affiliate merchant into your website similarly to how they do?

iReef posted one possible way of doing so, but you have to be extremely careful using this method. If you do not change the design enough, you could get in trouble for copyright infringement (see the DMCA - PDF). So, it's very important that you do change the design if you decide on this method.

Another method would be to have a website template designed for the homepage, category, and individual product pages. Copy the graphics from the merchant website, along with the product descriptions, and paste them into your templates.

If you're going to be doing the sites yourself, it truly does help if you have some knowledge of HTML/CSS - otherwise you could hire someone to provide similar services (consider scriptlance).

I hope that gives you some ideas and if you have any other questions, we're always welcome to help .
