Good notes

The good practice is to check your scholar profile regularly and to make sure that all your publications and works are listed in your profile. Google citation does work differently compare to Scopus or Web of Science, such that it shows citations of all papers, including yours as well. Scopus and WoS only show citations in papers written by other authors and published in Schopus or WoS registered Journals. Note, there are quite a few cases where citations may be result of colleague to colleague personal request, which may not always add to rigor and quality of the publication.

A good response from Eduard. At the end of the day - you can't get Google Scholar notifications to come to you any sooner than their normal process. It's the same with Scopus etc. Of course , you have to be registered with them to receive the notifications in the first place.

Get registered with google citation and you need patience of couple of days

Once you have registered yourself then just check your accounts it will be get notified whenever your any paper get cited.

Good notes

You can set alert for new citations for your published articles in the Google Scholar Profile.

Very much practical query indeed. Eduard has really elaborated about this. I have additional question. Is google scholar the only one and authentic source to know about citations?

You need to register and set alert for notification. When you do this, you will get notified.

Thank you everyone for your response,

Eduard- You touched the truth, as I found a new citation of my research paper on Scopus, while until now it doesn’t appear on my Google scholar profile. What can I do to accelerate this citation alert?

Constantly check your Google scholar profile for new citations.

You need to register with academic profiles and platforms like Google Scholar, Elsevier and Researchgate. Once they have your e-mail address, they will be notifying you when your publications are cited. They deserve commendation in helping us keep track with what happened to our publications.

Cheers

Register and have google scholar account. It will notify you through the email accoint you used for the registration whenever you have a new citation

Get registered with google scholar.

Update your profile.

Confirm your primary email address

Set alert for any updates on your publications.

Be patient as it gives you feedback on this.

Good notes

check your Google scholar

Register in as many research cites as possible, like: Scopus, RG, Academia, WoS (institutional)....etc. You'll get the shortest time for citation alerts.

Register and link your google scholar account with your institutional email e.g [email protected]

Thank you everyone,

Dr. Yasser- I recommend your answer and i think by this way the citation alerts will be much quicker!
