Simon Landry, Ph.D.
Wildly curious autodidact.
Passionate about bridging the gap between insight and impact.
Really into pop music (Summer 2024 thought: The innovation of Dua Lipa's Houdini starting sounding like there's a party behind a door, unlike the more common sound of emerging from a pool. e.g. Weeknd & Daft Punk's I Feel It Coming)
Tragically millennial.

What is Academic SEO?
A way to help people find your scientific articles and get more citations.I wrote this in 2020, so it's possible there are things you can do to get more citations.
Citation count is the most important factor when it comes to article search engines (Ranking by Relevance and Citation Counts, a Comparative Study: Google Scholar, Microsoft Academic, WoS and Scopus).Increasing the number of citations your articles have will make them easier to find through search engines, leading to even more citations.
8 things you can do to get more citations for your scientific articles
Add your article to Wikipedia - Science Is Shaped by Wikipedia: Evidence From a Randomized Control Trial
Share your research data - The citation advantage of linking publications to research data
Post on arXiv at the last possible minute before the daily email goes out - Positional Effects on Citation and Readership in arXiv
Add the PDF to your article to ResearchGate (or your personal website, depending on the publisher) - How accessibility influences citation counts: The case of citations to the full text articles available from ResearchGate
Tweet about published articles - Tweet success? Scientific communication correlates with increased citations in Ecology and Conservation
Post your article on Scihub - The Sci-hub Effect: Sci-hub downloads lead to more article citations
Don't use hyphens in your title - Metamorphic Robustness Testing: Exposing Hidden Defects in Citation Statistics and Journal Impact Factors
Insert key-words directly into the titles - Google Scholar’s Ranking Algorithm: The Impact of Articles’ Age (An Empirical Study)
I removed this from YouTube because I wasn't comfortable with massive companies stealing my labour and financially benefiting from my image, voice, and script. It's a shame because this was good stuff!
