Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Weibo; wherever you view other author's work, make sure you also share your work there. If you can see their work, it's likely they could see yours. Keep your message short, snappy, ask a question, and share a graphical abstract or article figure to make it stand out. Don't forget to tag your co-authors, your institution, or the journal so we can help spread the word!
Social Media
To expand the reach of your article, consider asking your institution to help promote your article. Institutions often have press teams who are always on the lookout for recently published work to promote.
If you’re part of a society, they may also be interested in promoting your work. Speak to them about a spot in their next newsletter.
Engage with your institution or society
Adding a link in your email signature to a recently published article is a simple, yet effective way to draw attention to your work.
