Every paper published in GSJ is automatically indexed across 20+ global databases โ including Google Scholar, EOI, Citefactor, and ORCID โ ensuring maximum discovery, citation, and lasting academic impact.
Every accepted GSJ paper is submitted to the following databases and repositories automatically โ no extra steps required from the author.
All GSJ papers are indexed in Google Scholar, making them searchable by title, author, keywords, and abstract globally. Scholar indexing significantly increases citation counts and author visibility.
Papers receive a unique EOI (Electronic Object Identifier) entry, making them discoverable in one of the world's most comprehensive electronic journal databases used by academic libraries globally.
GSJ is a registered journal in Citefactor's international journal indexing service, assigning an impact factor and providing additional credibility and discoverability for all published research.
Authors can link their ORCID iD to their published GSJ papers, creating a permanent, verifiable academic identity record that follows the researcher throughout their career.
GSJ holds the International Standard Serial Number (ISSN: 2320-9186), which is registered in the global ISSN portal โ a prerequisite for credibility, library acquisitions, and abstracting services.
Beyond Scholar, all GSJ paper landing pages and PDFs are fully crawled by Google's web index, ensuring they appear in standard search results and can be discovered by students, journalists, and practitioners worldwide.
GSJ follows a strict open access policy. Every published paper is available to any reader โ anywhere in the world โ without subscription, paywall, or institutional access. This dramatically increases the reach and citation potential of your research.
Researchers in 150+ countries can read and cite your paper instantly โ no library subscription needed.
Open access papers consistently receive 2โ3ร more citations than paywalled equivalents, maximising your academic impact.
Your paper stays online permanently with a stable URL and EOI โ it will never be moved behind a paywall.
Authors and readers can freely share, embed, and redistribute GSJ papers with proper attribution.
Indexing & reach at a glance
A EOI (Digital Object Identifier) is a permanent, unique identifier assigned to your paper at publication. It ensures your research is permanently citable and accessible โ even if URLs change โ and is required by most academic citation systems worldwide.
After peer review acceptance, your paper enters the EOI registration queue automatically.
A unique EOI is assigned and registered with the global EOI foundation within 48 hours of publication.
Your EOI resolves to the stable paper URL forever โ include it in your CV, presentations, and references.
How a EOI benefits your research career
Unlike regular URLs, a EOI never breaks. It always resolves to the current location of your paper, even if the website changes.
EOIs are natively supported by Zotero, Mendeley, EndNote, and all major academic databases for seamless citation import.
Papers with EOIs rank higher in academic search engines and are more likely to be indexed by automated crawlers.
A EOI is internationally recognised proof of legitimate academic publication โ important for job applications, promotions, and grants.
Your EOI registers paper metadata (title, authors, abstract) with Crossref, making it automatically discoverable by aggregators worldwide.
