Before promoting your article, we recommend that you create (and subsequently use for various promotional efforts) a short summary of your work. This summary should include your key research outcomes (i.e. we did this study on X and got Y results) as well as links to useful additional resources such as videos. This then allows a wider audience to understand and appreciate your research.
1. If you run a blog, add a post about your article. If you have a contact who runs a blog, ask them to help promote your work.
2. Tweet about your paper – either through any existing accounts that you manage or through any society/institutional accounts.
3. Contact your institutional press office to see if your article is relevant for any publicity opportunities.
4. Talk about your paper at your next conference and personally raise awareness of your research within your own community.
5. Create an account with Mendeley and share your work with thousands of fellow academics.

More of a casual comment in relation to the previous ones. This will actually help me when I am in university and start to publish papers, thank you!
ReplyDeleteYou most welcome Waheed. Yes, I do believe familiarising yourself with these tools from now, will most certainly enhance your university life and greatly assist you when you are ready to publish. All the best.
ReplyDeleteHi Hana, thank you for the helpful tips. I'm sure that we will be needing them very soon.
ReplyDeleteVery useful tips on the new topic though i would also want to know the negative impacts of altmetric to research.
