How do you choose the best-fit journals for my manuscript?
We evaluate scope match, study design (qualitative/quantitative/mixed), field relevance, and target audience. We prioritize journals with clear peer-review policies and recognized indexing (e.g., Web of Science, Scopus, DOAJ for OA titles), and we avoid questionable outlets. You receive a ranked shortlist with rationale and links to author guidelines.
Will you help me avoid predatory or questionable journals?
Yes. We use a checklist-driven approach (publisher transparency, editorial board, peer-review policy, indexing claims, ISSN, APC clarity) and cross-check against community guidance. Our report flags red flags and explains why a journal may not be suitable, so you can make an informed decision.
Can you tailor recommendations to Q1/Q2 targets or specific databases?
Absolutely. If you are aiming for Q1/Q2 journal selection or specific databases (e.g., Web of Science or Scopus), tell us your preferences. We balance impact, acceptance likelihood, and review speed, and we provide suitable primary and backup options aligned to your goals.
Do you consider Open Access, APCs, and funder compliance?
Yes. We identify OA options and typical APC ranges (where publicly available), note waivers/discounts (if listed by the journal), and check common funder/public-access requirements. We never recommend based on APC alone—we assess overall fit, credibility, and policy transparency.
What exactly do I receive for $90?
You receive a ranked shortlist of 5–7 journals, scope-fit notes, links to author guidelines, indexing status, indicative review timelines (when journals disclose them), OA/APC notes (if available), and a submission-readiness checklist. We also include a customizable cover-letter template.
Do you optimize titles, abstracts, and keywords for discoverability?
Yes. We suggest refinements that align with disciplinary vocabulary and indexing terms while maintaining accuracy and avoiding promotional language discouraged by journals. This helps visibility without compromising scholarly tone.
How fast is the Expert Journal Selection process?
Standard turnaround is 3–4 business days; priority (1–2 days) is available. Provide your latest manuscript, key terms, and target preferences to accelerate the review.
Can you help with niche or interdisciplinary topics?
Yes. For cross-disciplinary or emerging fields, we map your contribution to adjacent subject areas and identify credible journals that publish similar work, including specialty sections in established titles.
Do you help with submission formatting and cover letters?
We include a journal-specific checklist and a cover-letter template. If you need deeper support (reference styling, language editing, or peer-response drafting), see our Writing & Publishing Services.
