A journal publishing platform has the potential to help publishers, academicians & universities to promote journals & interdisciplinary collections on a single digital platform. This aids in making the publications more accessible to readers & also engages their audience.
Such a platform offers valuable statistics, facilitates raising citations, and helps in elevating the journal’s presence worldwide while saving time and providing resource management for the content.
Here are the key features that should be considered while choosing a journal publishing platform:
Easily Manageable
Creating and editing volumes, issues, and articles is a tedious task in the publishing world. To manage the same, the platform should be easy to navigate and perform functions so that the publishing house can operate it without any difficulty.
User-Friendly Interface
With a significant percentage of people worldwide preferring smartphones and other mobile devices for reading or conducting journal researches, it is essential to opt for a platform with a responsive design. An intuitive interface that displays the content according to the device helps in providing the best user experience..
Built-in Search Engine Features
Another important criterion, when selecting a journal publishing platform is the flexibility offered with the search parameters. Offering several search parameters like keywords, publication date range, phrase matches, author, etc. help the users to find the relevant journals quickly and easily.
Personalization
Unlike the rigidity of books, the experience of a digital publishing platform should offer several degrees of personalization to meet the needs of individual users. Customization appeals more directly to users – engaging them to the platform.
