Article How to improve your citation count.
These are some features of papers that I find the most helpful and tend to cite:
A concise (or elaborate, depending on the page limit) literature review. If the paper explains what has been done, their trade offs and what are the advantages of the new approach clearly, then it helps a lot.
A clear explanation (with as much details as possible or which reasons why you preferred this way over the other) of the measurements/experimental procedure. Often times, papers describe experiments with no insight and not enough explanation as to why a certain approach was taken. Yes, that certain approach might result in better data but it makes life easier for the rest if the paper has done a good job explaining all this.
A clear summary of your results, the advantages/disadvanatges of your approach, such that if someone else is trying to implement your method or getting started in that area of research, it should not be too difficult for them.
Ultimately, if your paper 'teaches' something new/useful to the other people, they will tend to cite your paper. It's one thing just putting together all the data and writing it up and another being able to 'communicate' it to the rest.
