5 is literally nothing. You are in a terribly competitive category, and most new freelancers never win their first contract.
You also need to work on your profile. Your overview needs to explain your unique selling point, how clients benefit from hiring you, not just list skills. There is no portfolio, there is no employment history, nothing that would give a client some confidence that you are an expert at what you do.

You have no portfolio or list of actual experiences. Clients want to see proven results. So perhaps add a few success stories in your portfolio and description. You also want to add any certifications to the certifications section of your profile. This will give you an edge over those who don't have or don't display them on their profile. Once you get a few reviews from clients it will get easier, You are in a tough market still, there are many freelancers who do bing and google ads PPC so try to differentiate yourself as much as possible.
