Check the turn. That card didn't help and is not going to scare Villain. IF you're going to continue your bluff, you need to bet more on the turn ($6 to $7) but I don't think this is a proper spot to do so. You're out of position.

Check river since you now have some showdown value.

I think the bet on the turn is fine, I want to bet here with a draw but not too much, half the pot seems fine, he might fold and it's not a really high price to pay for a chance to hit good and when you do the pot will be bigger. Yes on the river you might check, some players might try to bluff raise your little bet.

as played, give up on turn, try to get that free card.
if you really want to bluff the only thing you can do is try to get the money all in on the turn. You'll never be able to scare the villain with bets this small.
If i would want to pull off this (semi) bluff I would slightly overbet the flop and just push turn.
I have to say I doubt it's a good play at micro stakes because of all the calling stations
