I know I would just be using a landing page with a search box, banners and text links. Right?

I am sorry about the coming soon request. I do not know how to delete questions. Anyway, I am trying to do an affiliate sight.  I just want the customer to click search on the affiliate search engine to go the affiliates website. I cannot find a template that does just that.  I want examples like Kayak.com or expedia.com.  My website is www.essmen.com. It is an affiliate website. I just need a simple template. Do you know of a free template that I can use that will give me simple website like my examples.

This is an affiliate website. The only difference with my affiliate search engines and links is that they go directly to the Advertisers website.  I really do not need alot.

Yes! @DavidJohnson Most of the travel sites are affiliates all originating from Booking.com I think (Similar Web).  Private labels!

I am going to work on my website. I want to keep it. I am getting visitors even as I have done no SEO.  The traffic is small but, I know if I complete the SEO I will get more traffic.  The hold up is I am trying to weight the benefits of changing it to a travel website or stating the course with Aliexpress and the Aliplugin. The main problems with doing the Aliexpress would be that I would have to do everything by hand with a thousand products.

I have found and been told that I may have jumped the gun by creating an affiliate website before the blog. And, I am told that I have a lot of waiting to do to all allow the website to season and grow in popularity.

The Aliplugin is useless as it does exactly what you explained.  Aliexpress has stopped issuing the API where the plugin needs it to operate properly.  The website has not warned the customers of this problem.  So, you get the problem that I have where I am using a different Affiliate and using links.
