What is the best way to get views on my Behance portfolio for local clients?

I’m a graphic designer trying to transition from a full-time in-house role to freelancing, and everyone says a strong online portfolio is key. I’ve uploaded my best projects to Behance, but my profile just sits there with barely any views. I read an article with some Behance portfolio tips that emphasized crafting a compelling project story, not just dumping images. I tried rewriting my descriptions to explain my process and thinking, but I’m unsure if that’s really what gets you noticed or if it’s more about networking and tags. My work feels lost in a sea of incredible talent, and I’m starting to wonder if Behance is even the right platform for someone trying to attract local small business clients rather than global design fame.
