Introduction to the Research Tools:
Tools for Collecting, Writing, Publishing and
Disseminating your Research

Abstract
Disseminating and improving an article's impact is an
essential phase of the publication life cycle. However,
most of the researchers stop their work after publishing
their article and do not give any thought about the
importance of their research visibility and impact. There
are several “Research Tools” available on the internet
that enable researchers to collect, organize, analyze,
visualize and publicize research outputs. In this
webinar, you will find some tools that will help you to
collect, write, publish and enhance the visibility and
impact of your research.
Keywords: H-index, Improve citations, Research tools, Research visibility,
Research impact, University rankings
