    No work experience at all?  I doubt that.  It's just a matter of phrasing in your cv.  I had someone who included being a scout leader as proof of his management skills.  I thought that highly inventive.

    If you think you have no work experience than I suggest you list all the things you do normally and then take that to a recruitment agency.  They are very good at rephrasing things.  If nothing else they might get you a temp job which then can be added on to the cv. 

    Alternative is to find a local place that does job hunting skills workshops.  Might be something at the library or via a food bank, a women's group or similar.

    Do you mean that you want to search on line for a job? Or that you want a jopb that is online - that is, working from home? If you genuinely have little or no experience, the majority of the latter types of jobs pay very poorly (and often are self-employed / dodgy). You'll get much better answers if we are clear about what you are looking for and what you mean by "no experience" - everybody has experience of something!

    Have you actually done any searching online, assuming that your question means you want an online job (not clear if that's the case)? If you are going to 'develop on your own' a basic command of google is no bad starting point.
    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!

    Skills? Exam results/qualification? Areas of interest? 
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.
