How to actually get a remote job as an intermediate developer?

I've been trying to get a Remote job for over a month now, with 0 luck so far. I know lots of HN readers are freelancers, so I want to address you.

How did you manage to get your first Remote job? And if anyone has some spare time and will, could you possibly help me understand what am I doing wrong?

I'm WebDev - PHP BackEnd with 3 years of experience. Cheers.
