Improving the citedness of your research
There are a wide range of ways you can improve the visibility and therefore the citedness of your research. A journal paper by Ebrahim et al (2013) identifies 33 ways to improve your citation frequency.
Some top tips include:
- Do world-leading research that is original, significant and rigorous.
- Collaborate with highly-cited, preferably international, co-authors.
- Publish in the most visible journal or conference, or with a publisher with significant marketing reach.
- Publish open access where possible.
- Promote your work through academic networking sites.
- Add links to your work in your email signature.
- Take hard copies of your papers and circulate at conferences.
- Write keywords, titles and abstracts for search engine optimisation
- Choose a good article title
- Write a long abstract to improve visibility.
- Judicious self-citation may kick-start interest in your work. Do not over self-cite!
