Great question and I hope my answer will be adequate for you.
The top three sites in 2017 for networking of this type were 1) LinkedIn 2)Twitter 3) Facebook.
If you don't already, get accounts for these sites. More than that, separate your professional account from your personal account and market yourself. Make it an online portfolio. In addition, the number 1 thing to get you noticed on LinkedIn was activity. This means commenting, sharing, publishing, liking, and all things to get your account active. This was the number one way to network on the number one site for networking.
Personal Testament: Because of my LinkedIn, I have received close to 25 interviews and got placed in the position that I am in today. This stuff really works.

linked-in in is a very powerful .. but you need to put efforts in your profile.
Follow your targeted places to work expand you professional network as much as you can.
Read the articles from trusted sources.
I personally had some interviews also some of my friends did get jobs even in other countries other than they were resident.
wish you the best :-)
