Or only article, conference paper etc are found in google scholar search result.
I want to point out to a different perspective related to the uploading of any preprints anywhere before it has been published. Despite that RG describes the "Preprints" as early-stage research, my advice is to not put your research anywhere until it is published, especially on a public server. The rationale behind this are:
- Your manuscript may be copied and then published by others before you can do that. This stealing of your paper might be happening. You must wait until the paper is accepted and then published by that journal. Then, upload that research item on any platform you wish.
- You should avoid telling the other researchers about the details of anyone of your papers until it has been published and seeing your name by yourself.
- A journal may have automated plagiarism software to check the paper before admitting it to the reviewing process. There are chances that your paper can get a rejection at any point. Thus, to avoid this problem. Publish the preprint after you got "Congratulation, your valuable paper is ACCEPTED".
Hi,
Yes, you can find RG preprints on GS. I found one of mine. The data on GS is very inclusive.
Avishag Gordon Thank you for your reply. By the way I also found mine today after these days.
Dear Md Gulzar Hussain ,
The short answer is YES as indicated by Avishag Gordon .
Some observations of my own:
1. When it comes to matters about the link between Researchgate-Google Scholar, in others words when do stuff appear in Google Scholar once you uploaded it in Researchgate:
-It takes Google (often) just a few days to pick up your uploaded documents you’ve put in Researchgate. In other words a lot of data in Researchgate are frequently scanned by the Google Search machine/software.
-It takes Google Scholar an unpredicted amount of time. Looking at my own experience, some things were visible within a couple of days, others took between 5-6 weeks to (automatically) pick up your uploaded documents in Researchgate, while others were only visible after more than 5 months or so (if ever).
2. When it comes to Researchgate itself:
-Depending on the format the search engine of Researchgate is able to pick up references of your document instantly (provided that your pdf file is readable, see other topics about this elsewhere here on Researchgate). When this (for whatever reason) didn’t happen then it varies. I noted that some references were picked up within the next couple of weeks. While some references were apparently hard to recognize and then it could take a (very) long time. Varied from months till…if ever.
3. Google Scholar profile:
By itself a nice tool particularly for yourself. You have (some) influence on how for example your citations are collected and you can group different counts into one total count when it relates to one and the same publication. I have not seen any evidence that Google Scholar improves its findings (related to you and your citations) in the ‘normal’ Google Scholar display as seen by the average user. I was expecting (hoping) to see that for example all citations belonging to one and the same publication would be ‘corrected’ and taken together as it should be, but as far as I can judge this is only the case in your own profile overview with 1-2 examples of cases where this happened.
Sorry for the ‘touch’ of self-promotion but I feel (at least I hope) that the following link might be helpful to those who want to learn fast about the possibilities and impossibilities when it comes to matters like increasing ones views, getting stuff indexed in Google Scholar and so on:

One last remark when it comes to matters like this…be patient.
Md Gulzar Hussain Avishag Gordon how long GS will take to read preprints from RG?
Edwin Francisco Forero-García It varies. Generally, you might have to wait for 7 to 10 days.
My preprint was indexed by Google scholar after three days of publishing on Research Gate.
One thing worth mentioning is that when you add a published version of the preprint, google scholar keeps showing the preprint only and doesn't add a link to the published version.
I tested that with the following paper: Preprint ORADIEX: A Big Data driven smart framework for real-time sur...

Dear Md Gulzar Hussain
It will, but I recommend you not to make your work online unless it has been accepted for publication.
