Looking for a job in web development

I am from India and 44 years of age and have been looking for a job of web developer. The problem I am facing is of lack of relevant experience. And the employers/recruiters are looking for people with experience.

Although I have the basic exposure/familiarity, I am unable to get a job. I would like to know how else would I (as a fresher in current scenario) get a job in web development. Does not the basic knowledge, interest in the field have any value ?

I am also looking for overseas opportunities. Is it possible to get overseas opportunities as a fresher in new technologies ? If yes, then how ?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
