An e-commerce outsourcing system and method provides hosts with transparent,
context-sensitive
e-commerce supported pages. The look and feel of a target host is captured for
future use. The host is provided with one or more links for inclusion within a
page on the host website that correlates with a selected commerce object, which
may be contextually related to material in the page. The commerce object can be
a product, a product category, or a dynamic selection indicator. Upon activation
of the provided link, a visitor computer is served with a page with the look and
feel of the host website and with content based upon the associated commerce object.
Where the commerce object is a dynamic selection indicator, the content is selected
at the time of activation based upon an analysis of the page containing the activated link.
