You need to send your resume out to real jobs you are qualified to do. In your cover letter you need to state that you wish to work remotely, from your home office.

If you have some special research expertise, contact companies in your area of expertise to offer your services. If you do have this expertise, a website might be useful in helping such companies find you. Otherwise, not.
