Are there legit online jobs for unskilled people?

I was thinking of working from home and was wondering the possibilities of online jobs available.

What are the possibile prospects?

It is Ok Craig.

I am in no hurry.
Today I discussed about online jobs with a cousin in the IT field and it seems the banking system here is too hard for me to do much selling to clients out of my country.
The transfer of money and exchange makes me lose a lot of what I might earn.

So, I think I will try to limit to where I am for now and hopefully somewhere in the future I can have some work done online.

Thanks Craig.

It is possible to advertise so that it is directed to people who might buy something from you who are only in your country.

Most are not that into searching the internet for these things.
Small community, phone books,yellow pages have most of it.

Or someone in the family will have a friend who could find someone who does something and that is way easier than the internet in my community.

People are not backward as such,but tend to rely on word of mouth more than advertisements.

Okay.

Here are a couple of ideas for you: Guru.com provides a forum for employers who are looking for a wide variety of skills - mostly online. There are other freelance sites out there too, but I know Guru has a good reputation. As a self proclaimed "dabbler" (your profile) you may find something to dabble in there. :-)

Also, there are a number of web sites that offer virtual office temp positions - you can read about this trend in the following article:

Kind of like being an office administrator without having to go into an office. :-)
