Creating an Effective Google Scholar Profile for Greater Visibility.

 One of the most used and widely spread tools in search of academic works is the Google Scholar, a resource widely utilized by researches in every field to identify researches in specific topics, assessing the contributions and identifying experts in certain fields. With all the use of Google Scholar to look for studies, it is extremely important to have a Google Scholar profile optimized and ready.


A Google Scholar profile is a public academic resume, displaying studies in a particular field, the citation data of that research, interests of the researchers, and the university or research institutions the researcher is part of, all in one place, readily available to whoever may be interested. A good profile can represent research in the right way to an international academic community.


When building the profile it's fundamental to make sure the listed articles are correct, to remove them if they are not, and in this way show the most accurate citation metrics.


It is also very important to fill out all the fields available on the profile such as: professional picture, affiliation with the research institutions and email for contacts and verification.


The profile needs to be constantly updated. The researcher needs to always list any recent published article to update his or her citation metrics, and check them regularly.


Using a Google Scholar profile is beneficial to researchers because searchers will stumble on authors when looking for specific research. This leads to exploration of their studies and future research follow.


Another feature is the citation tracker, in which researchers can have access to how they're work is being cited, what other researchers find relevant and what directions the research topic is evolving toward.


An optimized profile can even help researchers in their careers by showing universities, collaborators and sponsors how they are regarded in the academic community.


In the modern era of technology and virtual researches an online presence is vital for researchers. Researchers who maintain their Google Scholar profiles properly increase their academic reputation, help to get their work published and cited from other scientists.
