This is an important question, especially for those who are just beginning their research career.
Every research paper should be written with the following things taken into account:
Reader-over-your-shoulder: Write a paper with the reader in mind. The first external reader of a submitted paper is an anonymous reviewer. That reviewer will probably not be familiar with the precise details of your research. Instead, the reviewer will have a research area that your paper fits into. So you must explain what you are proposing and how your approach fits into the research area of the reviewer.
Weave a web: Write a paper that clearly establishes connections between the proposed research and what has been done by others. It is often the case that an author of a research paper that you cite will become a reviewer of your submitted paper. In effect, you weave a web containing threads between your proposed research and research done by others. Isaac Newton said it all: I am what I am because I stood on the shoulders of giants {approximate quote).

Follow the instructions of the journal, then submit and wait for feedback. Then I react accordingly.

The answers are appropriate for journals, but think of writing a book instead.

According to me, researchers should find an appropriate journal related to the topic of the paper. This is the most challenging part while submitting a paper to any journal.

primeramente tener un inventario de revistas especializadas que tienen un alto poder de impacto y atreverse a publicar según sus normas para estar en grandes ligas.
