Your Article Journey
How research becomes discoverable
Submission
- Editorial checks and peer review begin immediately.
Acceptance
- Metadata validated and references checked for accuracy.
Deposits
- DOI registration and sitemaps enable discovery.
Visibility
- Articles appear across discovery channels.
Understanding Research Visibility
Indexing supports citation integrity and permanent identification. Discovery services help readers find and access your work.
Crossref registration allows immediate citation resolution. Discovery platforms typically index within 24-48 hours.
Not all articles are indexed in PubMed. Only NIH or agency funded articles deposited in PubMed Central become discoverable in PubMed.
Increase the Reach of Your Research
Publish with JWC to benefit from open access visibility and trusted discovery channels.

Author Actions That Help
Use precise keywords, include ORCID iDs, and ensure references are accurate with DOIs. Clear abstracts improve indexing success.
Profile Integration
Link your article to ORCID, institutional repositories, and research profiles to amplify reach and citation tracking.
Discovery Timeline
Metadata deposits and sitemaps accelerate discovery across search engines and aggregators. If you do not see indexing after a reasonable window, contact the editorial office.
Indexing Readiness
Consistent titles, structured abstracts, and accurate author affiliations improve indexing accuracy across databases and analytics tools.
Visibility Checks
After publication, confirm that your article appears in Google Scholar and institutional repositories. Share the DOI on profiles, lab pages, and data repositories to accelerate discovery and citation tracking across platforms.
Indexing Assistance
If you see delays in discovery, contact the editorial office with your DOI and publication date so we can investigate and confirm metadata deposits and update records if needed to ensure visibility.
