How to Increase the Visibility and Impact of your ResearchNader Ale Ebrahim
Why would a researcher or a research department want to increase the visibility of their research? It can be as simple as wanting to improve their university ranking or academic impact by gaining more views and citations for their research articles. However, others may wish to increase their visibility to attract more opportunities for collaboration or even to highlight their research impact on a larger society. It would be a disappointment if people who are interested in your work cannot fully access your research. Researchers have spent plenty of time and effort on writing their research for publication. Dissemination and improving an article's impact is an essential phase of the publication life cycle. However, most of the researchers stop their work after publication and do not give any thought about the importance of their research visibility and impact. In this webinar, you will find some tools that help you to achieve your goal to increase the visibility and impact of your research.
Planning and managing a research are vital part of your PhD journey. At the beginning of the research, it seems “there is infinite time to handle the research”. But, when students reach to the dead line, they may discover that many things should be done. Students should know, What do I want from my PhD?, and What should I do now/next?. In this workshop, Dr. Nader use some Research Tools for managing and planning a research. The Research Tools enable researchers to follow the correct path in research and to ultimately produce high-quality research outputs with more accuracy and efficiency.
Citation Tracking: Enrich Research Visibility and ImpactNader Ale Ebrahim

The Research Tools enable researchers to follow the correct path in research and ultimately produce high-quality research outputs with more accuracy and efficiency.
Research Skills Session 4: Evaluate a paper qualityNader Ale Ebrahim
Assessing the quality of a paper is a challenging issue. So, there is a requirement to evaluate a paper based on some other metrics which cover many aspects of publication quality. The quality of the article can be estimated by many aspects, such as, the number of citations, the journal IF, the author h-index, the Altmetric score, number of views, and the paper content itself. The workshop concentrates on how to evaluate and measure a paper quality by introducing some indicators.
Ways to Increase Research Visibility, Citation, and H-indexNader Ale Ebrahim
H-index is a common index for assessing the output and impact of researchers, departments, and universities. H-index will increase by citation of academic papers that also can be influential in improving the university ranking. One of the key ways to increase citations is to expose the research output to the widest possible audience. Publishing a high quality paper in a scientific journal is only half the way of receiving citations in the future. The rest of the journey is advertising and disseminating the publications by using the proper “Research Tools”. Citations to an article strongly depend on the visibility, rather than the merit of the article. Researchers have spent plenty of time and effort on writing their research for publication. However, most of the researchers stop their work after publication. Dissemination and archiving an article is an essential phase of the publication life cycle. There are tools that help to increase citation, H-index and research visibility. Effective use of these tools, which will be elaborated in this webinar, can result in increased visibility and, thus, improve the paper citations, sequentially researcher H-index, and university ranking.
Writing a paper helps you to disseminate your knowledge and experience, enhance your CV, gain additional employment opportunities, and increase your research visibility and impact. However, the prospect of writing the first paper often feels like a long way to achieve. In this workshop, Dr. Nader introduces some tools for writing a paper from his Research Tools Mind Map. The Research Tools enable researchers to follow the correct path in research and to ultimately produce high-quality research outputs with more accuracy and efficiency.
Keywords (commonly called search terms), are the words that researchers enter into the database search box. Keywords search, help researchers to find relevant papers to their research interest. The researcher need to select appropriate alternative keywords to reach the maximum number of published documents. There are some tools for choosing the best set of keywords for a research. Dr. Nader has collected over 700 Research Tools that enable researchers to follow the correct path in research for producing high-quality research outputs with more accuracy and efficiency. The workshop concentrates on how to choose the right keywords for your research.
The number of citations a paper receives helps to determine the impact of your research. Even if your research is excellent, if no one finds your paper, it won’t be cited. Similar to a company for marketing a retail product, Academic Search Engine Optimization (ASEO) of your journal papers is important to market your research findings. ASEO is almost obligatory if you would like to increase readership of your papers, increase citations and acknowledgment and to create an overall stronger academic visibility, both offline and online. By optimizing your articles, you guarantee that your articles are indexed and gain a higher ranking in general and academic search engines, such as Google Scholar. This presentation provides guidelines on how to optimize scholarly literature for academic search engines like Google Scholar, in order to increase the article visibility and citations. The closer your paper is to the number one search result, the more likely it will be read.
How to Improve Research Visibility and Impact: Session 8, Citation trackingNader Ale Ebrahim
Citation tracking is used to discover how many times a particular article has been cited by other articles. Citation tracking involves using citation data to measure the impact of an article and monitor the impact of research publications. Citation tracking lets you follow a particular author or paper and how it's being cited at present. Citation tracking allows you to find out which bits of your work are appreciated and used by other academics. There are a number of indexing services which keep track of citations.

How to Improve Research Visibility and Impact: Session 6, Document publishingNader Ale Ebrahim
Unpublished papers, white papers, datasets, and teaching materials can be a source for increasing the author’s visibility. Getting author's documents (the full range of work produced by scholars and researchers) under control is a key driver to enhance research visibility and impact. With document and data publishing tools, authors can put all of their key research outputs online where they're immediately accessible to the researchers that need them. Previous studies have found that papers with publicly available datasets receive a higher number of citations than similar studies without available data. In addition, new research has found that by putting your research data online, you’ll become up to 30% more highly cited than if you kept your data hidden. In this workshop I will elaborate the advantages of sharing research data and introduce some relevant “Research Tools” for document publishing.
Improve Research Visibility and Impact by Contributing to WikipediaNader Ale Ebrahim
Research visibility refers to how well other scientists publicly know you and your research. We all want to be known in our research area as a good scientist. Wikipedia is a tool for collaboration, information sharing and knowledge/content management for improving research visibility and impact, which anyone can edit. Wikipedia is widely used by students during the research process. So, due to Wikipedia popularity, contributing to the Wikipedia website is one way of increasing research visibility and impact. In this workshop, I will try to explain about the ways of posting in Wikipedia and its effect on the research Altmetric score.
Finding research papers (resources) within a specific research area can be done based on many aspects, such as keywords set, subject area, journal name, author profile, and dominant institution or country. The most important aspect, is the selected keywords set. Researchers are usually spending a long time on the net to find their interesting papers and keeping them.
