"Impact Factor vs Indexing vs Journal Quality"
"Impact Factor vs Indexing vs Journal Quality"
Low-indexed journal-based websites are recognized by search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo but do not appear at the top positions in search results because they have poor citations, low impact factor, and weak search engine optimization. International Journal of Humanities and Arts is indexed in Google Scholar and Crossref, which are low-indexed databases. Last year, I submitted two of my papers—they were accepted.
In particular, to understand the nature of low-indexed databases, I submitted my work to them. Its impact factor is claimed to be 8.53, and it is indexed in Copernicus, Google Scholar, ResearchBib, ICMJE, CrossRef, Scinapse, RJIF, Academia, ResearchGate, and Scilit. Although the impact factor is categorized as high, its articles are not extensively cited. Even its articles are indexed in low-indexed databases like Copernicus, Google Scholar, ResearchBib, ICMJE, CrossRef, Scinapse, RJIF, Academia, ResearchGate, and Scilit, which appears to be a false claim.
⛔ Those journals' impact factors will be claimed as IF > 5, and they will be indexed in high-indexed databases like Scopus, DOAJ, Web of Science, PubMed, MEDLINE, IEEE Xplore (Academic Databases), and MySQL (Technical Databases).
⛔ In particular, if any journal's impact factor IF = 0–2, it is considered an ordinary journal.
⛔ If any journal's impact factor IF is within 2–5, it is considered a medium journal.
⛔ If any journal's impact factor IF is above 5, it is considered a high-quality journal.
No high-impact-factor claimed journal will be indexed in low-indexed databases. If any journal claims a high impact factor but is indexed in low-indexed databases, it will be considered a bogus claim.
