2. Research VisibilityResearch Visibility
Raising the visibility of your research works will also increase the
chances for your works to be discovered, accessed, used and cited -
thus increasing the influence and impact of your research.
Assessing the impact of your research output is an important activity
for researchers as this supports key activities such as grant and job
applications, academic promotion, as well as raising the reputation
of a researcher within the scholarly communities.

4. A Google Scholar profile is a very simple way of collating your publications (and
citations to them) so that others can find your work and often find an accessible
copy that they can read. Once you have set up the profile, you can choose
automatic updates so you don't need to spend a lot of time updating your
publications list. If you create a Google Scholar profile, your profile will come high
up the page rankings if people are searching for your work.
If you are working in an area that is not well covered by the Scopus or
Clarivate blibliometric tools, you can use the free Publish or Perish software to
analyse your citations using the data from your Google Scholar profile.
Be aware that this free service is provided by Google and may not be continued
indefinitely.

6. Google Scholar ranks the full text of each article, the author, the
publication in which the article appears, and how often the article has
been cited in other scholarly literature.
Google Scholar automatically calculates and displays the
individual's total citation count, h-index, and i10-index.
Top citations in a field of interest can also be accessed.
