Academic Journal · Index Compliance Audit

Know Before
You're Rejected.

We evaluate all your journal's texts, policies and articles against 80+ criteria sought by national and international indexes, and put the points you've missed in front of you.

No scores, no guesses — only realistic recommendations backed by evidence collected from your site.

§ Outcome

Not a score,
an honest level

"78/100" doesn't tell you what to do. For each target index we tell you where you stand and how to get there.

Not Ready
There are serious gaps in core index criteria; comprehensive work is needed before applying.
Core Gaps
Your infrastructure is largely in place; fixing a few critical gaps will make you a strong candidate.
Close to Applying
Only small fixes remain; a short polishing round will bring you to the application threshold.
Ready to Apply
You meet the criteria for this index; you can apply with confidence.
§ Corrections

We don't say "fix it" —
we write the text

Next to every issue, a correction text ready to paste into your site. Example — copyright statement:

Copyright — contradiction across pages
Copyright Policy: "Copyright remains with the author."
Submissions: "The author transfers copyright to the journal."

Two pages contradict each other on the same topic. Whichever your policy is (copyright with the author OR the journal), align both pages to that single statement — the contradiction stands out more than the choice itself.
Indexing page — mixed list
Indexing & Abstracting: Google Scholar · ISSN Portal · DOAJ · Zenodo

Different kinds of services under one heading. Separate them — Indexes: DOAJ · Discovery: Google Scholar · Identifiers: ISSN Portal · Archiving: Zenodo. Evaluators read a mixed list as "padding".
Ethics — missing procedure
(No retraction procedure for published articles was found on the page)

Retraction and Correction: Our journal applies a COPE-compliant correction and retraction process for published articles.
