Hi

You can upload your papers in researchgate.

1. Email people directly. If you have a result that is highly relevant to someone's research, simply email them your paper directly with an explanation how it relates to their research. This direct approach is surprisingly effective since one citation leads to another etc. You have to be sparing with this and not send out mass emails (tends to annoy people). Email people one at a time and be sure to include a brief explanation of how it relates to their research.

2. Write a review.

3. Your web page is another major portal for people. I would suggest expanding your web page to remove the focus away from your work experience and more onto your research interests (for an example see http://mrgcvd.engr.wisc.edu/GroupWebsite/Research.html

Thanks for all three tips. I see that I have to redesign my web page. Thanks once more.

I thank the two contributors (brender and angella) on the issue for their useful information. I think that another new way is to publish in open access journals, use of sharp, contemporary and attractive words for key words to the paper. Also upload to research-gate highly influences visibility on the web as it provides tracking measures. Regards

Recently I have published an article entitled "Effective Strategies for Increasing Citation Frequency" which is available online on http://ssrn.com/abstract=2344585 . You can find over 33 different ways for increasing the citations impact.

Thanks I already read this paper, it is a good overview and I found there many useful tips

Thanks

Hi

You can upload your papers in researchgate.

@ Mostafa,

thanks for your contribution.

Yes you are right but you have to be aware of copyright, each of Journals can have different copyright police e.g. you can upload only submitted version, version after review, final version without Journals logotypes. Hence, you should keep all version of your paper.

This is very good approach to ensure your content - research results is easily found by search engines.

"Regardless of the topic, a writer’s goal should always be to provide value and quality. Many fall short in this area, not fully understanding how to create a solid structure that allows for natural progression and readability in posts. Writing should flow naturally from one thought into another, and the structure of blog posts should take on natural characteristics..."

Increasing the number of citations leads to increased researcher's results visibility.

Data citation is becoming real with FORCE11 and Elsevier

At Boston workshop, Elsevier detailed its efforts to credit researchers who make their data available by supporting research data citation...

"At Elsevier, one of our key activities involves creating new ways to support the posting, publishing and citation of research data. This is crucial to encouraging re-use of research data and enabling the reproducibility of published research. Publishing data alongside the traditional article publications means a new kind of citation is needed: a citation to the research data set.

By partnering with organizations like Force11 — a community of scholars, librarians, archivists, publishers and research funders – we’ve been able to lead the way in this very important space.

Publication and citation are accepted by the scholarly community as the principal way of acknowledging the value and impact of a researcher’s contributions to the development of knowledge in their field. The practice of selecting items for publication and subsequently for citation is immensely valuable and trusted by researchers globally, but it has been difficult until now to apply it to non-traditional research output..."

I think that the most popular and free online services are ResearchGate.net and Scholar.Google.com. Other alternatives are the own institution website in a particular page as professor or teacher, etc. or also a personal page (but this would not be free).

You may increase the research visibility by contributing to different social networks, scientific networks, but the best results will be achieved at World Wide Web by contributing to Wikipedia.

Article Visibility and Citation Impact

Hi, Dr. Nader.

How are you?, (Ramadan Generous).

Is the specialist of my write is important things? I chose the specialist that had a lot of researchers and had a lot of articles or I chose the discrepancy to that?

With my best regards.

Salam Hayder,

Ramadan Mubarak 2U 2,

With reference to this "http://scimagojr.com/mapgen.php?maptype=bc&country=US" Subject Bubble Chart, multidisciplinary research receive the highest citations per document.

Free online access of your articles/books is other possibility to increase visibility.

You may find a lot of interesting presentation files about "How to increase the research results visibility? " here https://figshare.com/authors/Nader_Ale_Ebrahim/100797

Dear @Mahboobeh, that link was brought to this thread by the author, dear @Nader. Visit previous pages.

How to increase the research results visibility?

You can explore the following:

You can check out your name in Google Scholar citations on how many & who are the researchers are citing your research works.

How to increase the research results visibility?

1. Present your research in your institute. Institutes may have some kinds of 'Research Day' or some kind of 'Discussion Groups'. 

2. Some states also have research day. For example, we have an event called 'Research Day at the Capitol State', during the legislative session. The event was created to inform the legislature (policy-makers) and the public about the high-quality research being conducted at colleges and universities. Outstanding students are invited to present their researches there.

http://www.okepscor.org/public-outreach/research-day-capitol

3. Present your research in national and international meetings if you can. Use oral presentations (better) and poster presentations.

4. Publish your research results in a top journal. Open Access (OA) is an option, but most likely you will be charged a fee. OA reach much more researchers worldwide, where their institutes don't have financial supports to subscribe majority of those important journals.

5. TV or newspaper interviews are a powerful way to help you spread your research. I have seen some TV/newspapers/magzines come to interview particular professors/students whose researches are unique and a breakthrough.

6. Use Youtube. My previous professor makes some Youtube short movies to explain and demonstrate his research projects.

7. RG (ResearchGate) is a good place to share your research projects, goals and some research results with other researchers from all over the world (which has been mentioned by others).

Dear Dominik Jurków

Make a project or more than one on the RG. Then you can invite a group of authors to contribute in these projects and upload your articles on it. The authors can determine the future points relying on your work. Surely, your articles will be cited in the published team articles.  

Regards

I have conducted over 20 workshop on "Strategies to Enhance Research Visibility, Impact & Citations". All of my presentations are available online at: https://figshare.com/authors/Nader_Ale_Ebrahim/100797 

Dear All,

I am happy that this topic is still active and you have given new ideas about this thematic.

ResearchGate.net and Scholar.Google.com are two free platforms which increase visibility of researchers. You can join to both ones.

It is very important to increase the visibility of scientific work. We can do this in different ways, including:

• writing and publishing high quality experimental and review articles, not only scientific but also science popular in high quality journals;
• presenting our results at scientific conferences;
• organization of scientific events;
• lecturing;
• active participation in scientific and professional societies;
• Using scientific platforms such as Research gate, LinkedIn, but also Facebook, Twitter, etc.

It is very important to improve our ability to communicate science. 

Here are some related research questions and articles.

Article How authors can maximise the chance of manuscript acceptance...

Dear Dominik: From whatever little experience I have, I think for research visibility in terms of increasing number of citationsthe following maycount considerably: 1) Publlishing in reputable journal; 2) the paper should add to knowledge in a trendy theoretical area in your field. The latter point is particularly very important. A theoretical area that has cosiderable heuristic value, is trendy have considerable research attention is likely to attract nuch attention. 3) The study's research question should lead to innovative solutions. 

The above are a few thoughts that I could think up off the cuff.

Dear colleague

I think that publishing un high impact factor journals especially A+ rancked ans some reviews could improve your visibility.

Bachir

Many researchers do publish their articles in OA predatory journals! Definitely, it increases the visibility of research! I do not suggest such approach!

Use cross networks and services. RG is one good channel. Use Academia.edu, too. Do not forget about Mendeley. If you like Kudos, go also for it. Combine them all as much as possible - and your visibility will certainly increase.

Many good ideas are found in the answers above. I just want to add a link to Kudos, a service helping to increase research impact: https://www.growkudos.com/  It was Taylor & Francis that recommended me to use this service. If you like it is possible to add a shorter title and descriptions of the content in everyday language to reach out to a bigger audience.

Eleven suggested strategies were proposed for increase the visibility of your research!

• Include publications in an open repository so google will track when you've been cited
• Publish in an Open Access journal or self-archive it (if publisher allows).
• ...
• Publish thought-provoking, critical pieces or literature reviews - these traditionally have higher citation rates as do those dealing with hot topics.

Dear All,

I am really happy about the discussion in this topic. Since 3 years I am working in industry and the science dissemination have for me right now as well different purpose. I want to  disseminate not only in order to collect better citations or visibility among other researchers or academic workers but as well to communicate my results to other industrial partners, government and non government organizations in order to collect new orders and to show activities and know-how of my company.

I could not at first understood why in industry people are publishing papers in magazines which have no IF. I though that they do not know that it is important :). I see right now that I have think about the goal group of people which I want to excite about my technology and results. If industrial partners do not read my high quality journals then I have to find the magazines which they are reading. If they are not at the best conferences then I have to find the possibility to meet them on other events. e.g. fairs.

In my former work I was filling strong stress to achieve high citations and h-index. Right now I understand that it does not open the way to good dissemination. The increasing the research results visibility is much more difficult that I though at the beginning.

I think for increasing citations and the research attention of relevant scholars, the nature toyr findings does count a lot. Research is done primarily for two purposes. Your findings either help solve some practical problem or add to the body of theoretical knowledge or to both. Remember the famous dictum that there is nothing so practical as a good theory. Secondly, publish the paper in a reputable journal.  Once your findings get noticed and succeed in creating a controversy these shall automatically get cited in paper after paper. I mean your findings should become the source of debate in that area.

Dear All,

I think that my last answer was not correctly understood. I have nothing against good journals. I understand as well that all dissemination actions are useless if our findings are not important. You are absolutely right Fazal.

The problem which I see right now is that good journal is the journal which attracts the attention of people which we want. I am conducting right now industrial research and I want to attract the attention of industrial partners who do not read journals with high IF factors from my discipline, however they are reading several technical magazines, which are from the IF or scientific point of view irrelevant. I was intending to show that my initial question should be much wider as I asked it for 3 years. In my opinion right now the high research visibility of my work does not have to be strictly bonded with good journals from scientific posit of view, I mean high IF factor. Of course in case of academic scholars choosing to publish in journal which have no IF factor and is not read by other academic researchers is quite difficult e.g. without high level of citations and high number of publications in journals with high IF you will not get new research projects and your career is very limited. On the other hand if academic researchers will not work together with industry we lose a lot of possibilities to industrialize our results. I am not trying to give a simple answer. I want to show some sort of paradox.   

Dear @Dominik, I have just got this article from Elsevier.

Visibility and Citation Impact

By Nader Ale Ebrahim

http://eprints.um.edu.my/9813/1/Visibility_and_Citation_Impact-33984-120606-1-PB.pdf

Thank you very much everyone for your contributions. Undoubtedly, this will serve me a lot in this scientific path that I am undertaking.

And of course, thanks to this platform like ResearchGate that helps a lot in research and in the scientific community.

Onodera, N. and F. Yoshikane, Factors affecting citation rates of research articles.Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, 2015. 66(4): p. 739-764.

https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=3037468

The researchers say the growth in South Africa’s publication output has coincided with an increase in the visibility of the country’s scientific papers. The visibility of science is partially captured by looking at the number of times research publications are referenced (‘cited’) in the publications of other researchers.

“The citation impact of SA’s scientific papers has increased steadily from 0,8 in 2000 to 1,1 in 2016. This is a very positive result as a score of above 1 means that SA’s papers are on average being cited slightly higher than all the papers in the fields that we publish.”

The researchers mention that it is important to apply appropriate normalize procedures in these types of analyses in order to make comparative assessments because citation practices differ vastly across different scientific fields...

Two years ago dear Lisbeth Nilsson has posted the following answer:

There is no need for duplicated answers.

Agree, many wonderful ideas already provided. One thing that I did not see in other answers is to publish preliminary papers in digital industry newsletters with interesting facets of the topic related to that particular industry. For example, my dissertation was on the contribution of allied health professionals to hospital quality so I focused on biomedical engineering technology newsletters and topically focused items. This built a platform of interest for papers/books to follow. I also think that planning for citations is not easy. Instead, planning to illuminate some facet of an established topic with a high interest rate or unravelling an emerging topic ahead of the curve can be the most beneficial way. Innovation in how you select a hot topic is more likely to produce citations. This requires understanding the market size for your intellectual product which may be in the early stages of formation and thus, less likely to be quoted. As it would happen, a collaboration with two international colleagues on a topic that really fit none of our specific expertise has led to the highest number of citations. Energy theft and governance are hot topics in transitioning nations and therefore, continues to be cited as a foundational paper 6 years later. Ground floor innovation can be a big factor...but risky.

Sharing your product with your closest friends and colleagues, and asking them to share it as well

Please find over 48 different strategies for maximizing research impact and visibility at:

Ale Ebrahim, Nader and Gholizadeh, Hossein and Lugmayr, Artur, Maximized Research Impact: An Effective Strategies for Increasing Citations (December 15, 2017). Managing and Leading Creative Universities – Foundations of Successful Science Management: A Hands-On Guide for (Future) Academics (pp. 29-51). Tampere, Finland: International Ambient Media Association (iAMEA); ISBN 978-952-7023-16-7. Available at SSRN: https://ssrn.com/abstract=3101575 .

If you want to position your research, the first thing I recommend doing is to socialize it with your nearest work circle, your students and colleagues. A former teacher of mine used to say "If your own students do not quote your work, do not expect others to do it". Thus, you begin to have visibility. A paper is more likely to be quoted or read if it has 5 quotes instead of one.

Raising the global visibility of local research

A Colombian university’s Research and Innovation Office and library collaborate with Elsevier to make non-STEM, non-English research more accessible...

“We are always sensitizing researchers to the importance of academic visibility and best practices to improve their positioning on the research portal, and we offer one-on-one advice, as needed,” she said. Awareness-building extends to students, with information literacy projects to “teach them how to identify publications relevant to their projects, how to use the information ethically, how to make the most of informational tools such Mendeley and the importance of building and maintaining an academic reputation.”

In the here and now, she said, the system Estévez-Bretón put in place is a critical strategy for “raising the web presence of researchers, improving their citation index, measuring their impact, demonstrating the university’s research strengths, and improving opportunities for collaborative research and comparative studies in the social sciences and humanities.”

Publish your publication title or full text in Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook and other media!

I am agreed with Aminul Islam.. You can upload your paper in different social media especially

Researchgate

Google Scholar

In addition, you can also share your paper to your friends through twitter, linkedh and facebook.

Thanks.

You have to answer the questions/ make a question/ share your articles, researches and your preprints. update your profile and add your lab members and stuff like that.

yes you should always update your publications weekly, or upload your articles in different social media, and so it will be more visible to other researcher.

Research Visibility: Tips to Raise Your Research Visibility

With around 2 million new articles published each year, researchers now have to consider what they can do to increase traffic to their publications. Technology has also made it increasingly easier for researchers to increase the visibility of their work through different networking and social media platforms.

By increasing a researcher's online presence, it helps raise the visibility of his research works thus increasing the potential of being discovered, downloaded and cited.
