How to make a Journal indexed in Google Scholar ?
We have a Computer Science and Communication Journal in the college (Journal of Computing and Communication ). We target to publish Research articles in all the disciplines of Computer Science and Communication. We plan to publish two issues per year. Can anyone tell me the ways and means to index the Journal in the google Scholar

My dear
A common misconception about Google Scholar is that regardless of the content type or quality, it will index all the content it can access. This is not the case. In contrast, as described in "Academic Search Engine Optimization (ASEO): Optimize Academic Literature for Google Scholar & Co.", Google Scholar is an "invitation-based search engine." This means that "only articles from trusted sources and articles'invited' (cited) by indexed articles are included in the database." Google Scholar stated on its website, "We work with academic information publishers Index peer-reviewed papers, essays, preprints, abstracts, and technical reports from all research disciplines and make them searchable on Google and Google Scholar."
In order for your journal to be included in Google Scholar, the content on your website must first meet two basic conditions:
Mainly composed of journal articles (eg original research articles, technical reports)
Provide free full texts of all articles or abstracts written by the authors (no need for human or search engine robot readers to log in to your website, install specific software, accept any disclaimers, etc.)
From there, your journal website and articles must meet certain technical specifications, which we will outline below. Before we start, let's take a look at some of the specific benefits Google Scholar provides for journals and how to determine whether your article is included in the search engine.

Journal indexed in Google Scholar is an online process.As soon as the paper is published in Scopus as well as ISI journal, it will apprear in google scholar.
Dear Dr-Diaa Salama . The procedure is :
- Checking your HTML or PDF file formats to make sure the text is searchable.
- Configuring your website to export bibliographic data in HTML meta tags.
- Publishing all articles on separate webpages (i.e. each article should have its own URL)

Scientists Support Ukraine
Like so many, I am shocked and saddened at seeing war break out in Europe. My thoughts – and those of the ResearchGate team – are with the people of Ukraine and everyone affected.
ResearchGate is an international company, whose purpose is to enable scientists across the world to work together openly and collaboratively, regardless of borders or nationality. We have people from over 40 countries on our staff of around 200, and being based in Berlin, we are profoundly aware of the human cost of conflicts, the echoes of which have shaped and scarred our home city. We join with the international community in condemning the actions of the Russian state.
We have been asking ourselves: What can we do?
From today, we will offer free advertising space worth $2.5 million on our network to humanitarian organizations working to respond to the crisis. ResearchGate benefits from over 50 million visitors every month, and we hope this initiative can help raise funds and awareness for those organizations that are having direct impact and need support.
We also want to use our platform to highlight the response from the scientific community. Personally, I have found the messages of support from scientists everywhere to be truly heartfelt, and I would like to highlight some of the community initiatives I’ve seen here:
- Science for Ukraine provides an overview of labs offering a place for researchers and students who are affected to work from, as well as offers of employment, funding, and accommodation: https://scienceforukraine.eu/
- Labs supporting Ukrainian Scientists is an expansive list of labs and PIs offering support at this time. Submissions go here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeRGe5Da_b6GGyC6VT7CLGViGs06SzeuX7wRKpC4K5tnvlhgg/viewform Find the full list here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HqTKukfJGpmowQnSh4CoFn3T6HXcNS1T1pK-Xx9CknQ/edit#gid=320641758
- This open letter from European scientists expressing solidarity and promoting peace is open for signatures: https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/an-open-letter-from-european-scientists-against
Additionally, I’m posting here some of the organizations responding to the crisis and actively soliciting donations:
- Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF): https://www.doctorswithoutborders.org/what-we-do/countries/ukraine
- The UN Refugee Agency: https://donate.unhcr.org/int/en/ukraine-emergency
- UNICEF: https://www.unicef.org/emergencies/conflict-ukraine-pose-immediate-threat-children
To help gather more support for these initiatives, please consider sharing this post further (you don’t need a ResearchGate account to see it), and I will continue to update it with other initiatives as I find them. You can also click “Recommend” below to help others in your ResearchGate network see it.

Conferences organized by Acavent - are they legit or are they SCAM?
Dear all,
I am considering visiting conference organized by Acavent (https://www.acavent.com/)
However, I have very ambivalent feelings about it. They organize multiple conferences throughout the year and all are branded as international. At the same time it seems previous conferences really took place and conference proceedings seem somehow decent.
Did anyone visit their conference?
In particular I am looking at "5th International Conference on Research in Business, Management and Economics" (https://www.icrbme.org/)
I would very much appreciate your experiences/opinions.
