A‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌ great way to seek a promotion is to organize a convincing argument of your achievements, ask for a brief meeting with your manager, tell him how your work has been valuable, and then, without any doubt, say that you want to take a higher position. Being professional, supported by data, and customer-centric normally yields the best ‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌outcome.
