Author guidelines

Index your work properly.

IndexingHub lists published articles so they're findable alongside their journals. Here's what a good article record looks like and how the process works.

What the record needs

The published version's URL

Your article must already be published — the record links to it at the publisher or repository.

A complete author list

Every co-author, in published order. The citation is only as good as its author line.

The real abstract

Paste the published abstract, not a summary. Researchers search against it.

A DOI when you have one

Not required, but a DOI makes your record permanently resolvable.

The right journal

Pick the journal from the index; if it isn't listed yet, ask your publisher to submit it.

The process

  1. 1

    Register as an author

    Create an account and choose the author role — with email or Google/GitHub.

  2. 2

    Submit the article

    Title, abstract, authors, category, journal, publication URL and date, DOI and keywords.

  3. 3

    Review

    An editor checks the record. Track the status from your dashboard.

  4. 4

    Indexed

    Approved articles appear in the index as citations, linked to their journal. Rejections include the reason.
