Find the perfect journal

Are you looking for a good journal in which to publish? Authors looking to submit their articles to the "perfect journal" may be interested to know about two relatively new tools to compare journal impacts and rankings.

Eigenfactor

  • Eigenfactor's Article Influence is similar to the ISI Impact Factor
  • Provides a cost-effectiveness search for journals
  • Ranks journals similarly to the way Google ranks websites
  • Uses citation data from Thomson Scientific's Journal Citation Reports (JCR)
  • Algorithms are openly described on the methods page
  • developed by a group working with Carl Bergstrom, in the department of biology at the University of Washington
