Do not turn yourself into someone who thinks he knows all, but be a master of it and it must show in your work.

Your art is hidden until it is displayed to the public eye. Finding your niche isn’t enough. You’ve got to advertise your expertise on the freelancing platforms and share your skills and mastery.
You also need to update your social handles and page descriptions of facebook, update your fiverr and upwork accounts. Everything should be advertised and based around your niche.
Make sure your work makes people think that they can’t have a better freelancer than you.
