What plugins do I need for this?

I want to build a website using WP. It will probably be less than 10 pages. I am not sure what I need to do this, but what I want are the following features:
  1. Automatically generate a unique URL for the user based on their username basically giving them their own website. So if the website is flowers.com and the user signs up as tulips, then their website will be flowers.com/tulips or tulips.flowers.com (whichever is easier to manage). So it is just a duplicate site with their own personal URL associated to it.
  2. Each unique URL will have something on that page that identifies that this site belongs to for example: "Tulips".
  3. Each user can update each product offered with their own affiliate ID. If they don't put in an affiliate ID then any sales made from that link will go to the the person that signed them up.
  4. Each user needs access to the backoffice to login and update their personal information.

This will be a free site so no payment gateway needed. Can anyone suggest to me what plugins/services I will need to do this?

      Thanks but I have no idea what you are talking about. I know how to create blogs but anything else would be out of my experience level. So I'm hoping that I can do this with plugins.

    That could be achieved with WordPress Multisite.
    Signature
    I just wanna tell you that most of the links in the signature are trash and/or a trap to make you pay!

    what you are asking for is called a multisite... if you want to make it yourself you are going to need some serious programming skills,

    as far as the permalink structure.. you can tweak pretty much how you want it to behave from the default settings section

    Etsy - Your place to buy and sell all things handmade, vintage, and supplies is a good example of what you are talking about.. it's a user genreated store webiste.. where users can come and create an account.. create their own stores.. post their own products and make sales..

    as far as the affiliate ID.. we can check that out.. how we can make that work .. i'll have to read up just a bit more..
