I am starting up a new website and I am wondering if what I am venturing to do is actually an affiliate situation. Allow me to give an example:
I would have a website let's say for Home and Garden supplies.
I have a search engine on my website which allows the consumer to search for all his home and garden supplies.
He types 'rakes' into search engine. Search results give him several options of rakes. These rakes are from various retail stores (Home Depot-Lowes etc) from here he buys his rake of choice from whatever retailer and goes on his merry way.
For me to use these retailers on my website, in this fashion, would that be consider usage of an affiliate program or would it be something else?
Any help would be eternally appreciated!
Thank you
