Thank you so much in advance. I just like to clarify to all my colleagues, especially, post-graduate student, how to select best and trusted journal for publication.
I can suggest you two very useful and authoritative resources, which you can use for any of your manuscripts:
1) JournalGuide of ResearchSquare - https://www.journalguide.com/ - based on the title of your work - does the same as Manuscript Matcher.
2) Manuscript Matcher of Thomson Reuters - http://endnote.com/product-details/manuscript -matcher is a very elaborated free service which based on your manuscript title and abstract suggest you the journal where you should submit.

"What's the best journal for my paper?' New tool can help
Journal Finder, in beta, was developed by Elsevier in response to feedback from authors
By Elizabeth Ash and Lyndsay Scholefield Posted on 5 June 2013
Getting a research paper published can be a challenge. It's even more challenging when considering the risk of rejection that comes from submitting a paper to a journal that's not the right fit.
For inexperienced authors, this is a particular pain point, leading to rejections, adding months to publication and slowing career progress. Nearly a third of visitors to Elsevier's Authors' Home are trying to decide which journal they should submit their paper to.
Meanwhile, editors must sift through many out-of-scope papers when authors choose journals that are a poor match.
Our role is to support authors by getting them published in the best possible journal as fast as possible."....
I believe it depends on subject that you work and impact factor of the journal too. Hell lot of journals are there. Sometimes though the impact factor of the journal is less you see very good articles then you can say IF is a number.
@Seyed Mehdi Mohammadizadeh: thanks for your valuable suggestions and thanks to Prof Emad Kamil Hussein as well for asking this question. This thread is certainly going to solve the journal selection issue of many research scholars.
I ditto Priyadarsini Mishra in thanking for the question and the reply given by Seyed. I feel it will b e useful to me and to other researchers and maybe cut out hours of work in trying to find suitable journals where I/they can publish.
In addition to JournalGuide of ResearchSquare and Manuscript Matcher of Thomson Reuters suggested by Seyed, I think the title-lists issued by Scopus can be beneficial.
If you can find its name in this website, it means it is a good and ISI journal.If you can not find it here, you should doubt about it.
In this website, you can also search to find proper journal for your article, just write your keyword and search, then the list of journal that have that keyword on their name will be appear, you could see the impact factor, difficulty, and the time of publication for each journal...
If you already have the title and abstract for your article, you can use the following tools from Elsevier and Springer to help you pick a right journal among those that belong to the respective publisher
http://journalfinder.elsevier.com
http://journalsuggester.springer.com
The output of these tools shows inter alia average article processing times and impact factors of the journals and, if I recall correctly, also publication fees and open access fees. In many journals you can publish free of charge if you do NOT make your article open access (i.e. it is available only to journal subscribers), but this should be checked for each journal separately.
Once you make a short list of potentially suitable journals, you can check whether they are covered by Scopus here
