Discoverability and preservation roadmap
Foundation and ISSN
Stabilise title, ownership, editorial governance, publication schedule, policies and article archive; then obtain a confirmed ISSN matching the journal title.
Google Scholar readiness
Maintain one unique URL per article, crawlable full text, accurate bibliographic metadata, visible references and stable article files.
Crossref membership and DOI registration
Register and maintain complete article metadata after membership/onboarding and prefix assignment. Crossref is a DOI registration and metadata infrastructure, not a quality index.
DOAJ application
Apply only after the journal demonstrates sustained publishing, transparent governance, open-access licensing, quality control and all required public policies.
Long-term preservation
Implement preservation through an appropriate service or repository strategy, maintain backups, and keep all article URLs and metadata persistent.
Selective citation indexes
Consider Scopus and Web of Science only after a consistent publication record, international editorial quality, citation performance and policy compliance.
