When I speak, unless I'm sharing the screen I always keep looking at myself. It's kind of strange -- it clearly does not match a real-world conversation, but somehow I can't help it.

I stare at the camera so everyone else can see me staring into their soul.
J/k, I look at whoever is talking or whoever has some eye catching background, which sometimes is me.
Don't blink or show any emotion. Just stare stone cold into the camera
bonus points if they think that your connection is lagging
Just start adding random pauses when you speak
I swear people in on Zoom to testify and for some reason I took to looking at the camera because it perhaps makes it more official, since I assume they're looking at me. I dunno. Life is one big joke.
