Submission & Quality Guidelines

Our mission is to build a trusted, high-quality directory. Please review our standards to ensure a smooth and successful submission process for your journal.

Our Core Principles for Inclusion

To be accepted into our directory, every journal must meet the following criteria. These standards protect the integrity of our platform and the researchers who use it.

Ethical Standards

Journals must adhere to publication ethics (e.g., COPE guidelines), with clear policies on plagiarism, retractions, and conflicts of interest.

Content Quality & Scope

The journal should have a defined academic scope, publish peer-reviewed content, and follow a consistent publishing schedule.

Website Professionalism

The official website must be clean, functional, and provide easy access to author guidelines, archives, and editorial information.

Publisher Transparency

Editorial board details, publisher info, fees, and contact information must be clearly visible and accurate.

Our Review Process

Here’s what happens after you submit your journal for review.

1. Submission Received

You submit your journal through our publisher dashboard. You will receive an email confirmation that your submission has been received.

2. Initial Screening

Our admin team performs an initial check to ensure all required information has been provided and the journal's website is accessible.

3. Editorial Review

An editor reviews your journal against our quality guidelines, assessing its scope, peer-review process, and overall adherence to scholarly standards.

4. Final Decision & Publication

You will be notified of our decision via email. If approved, your journal will be published in our directory within 24 hours. If rejected, we will provide feedback on the areas that need improvement.

What We Do Not Accept

To protect our community, we will reject journals that exhibit signs of predatory or low-quality publishing practices, including but not limited to:

  • Journals with no clear or verifiable peer-review process.
  • Websites with false or misleading information (e.g., fake impact factors, non-existent editorial boards).
  • Aggressive and unsolicited email spam to potential authors.
  • Lack of transparency regarding publication fees (APCs).
  • Poorly constructed websites with broken links, grammatical errors, and non-professional design.
