Will there be royalties for publishing papers on SCI?

  Many friends have tried to contribute to magazines when they were students. These are often the contributions of magazines, which usually have royalties. So will we have royalties if we submit papers to SCI journals? Now let's talk about this topic with you.

  Some authors can indeed obtain certain royalties by submitting to the magazine, but not all types of articles published will have royalties. Those with royalties are usually novels, essays, poems and other contributions. If an academic paper is published, it usually does not involve royalties, not only does it not involve royalties, but also requires the author to pay a certain amount of layout fees and other publishing fees to the magazine, which is a major feature of academic paper publishing.

  The layout cost depends on the specific situation of the journal. The academic value of SCI journals is extremely high, and the academic status is also obvious to all. The high publishing cost of this level of journals is completely understandable. The layout cost of SCI journals varies from more than 1000 US dollars to more than 2000 US dollars, and there are also higher costs. Calculated, the layout cost of publishing an SCI paper ranges from tens of thousands of yuan.

  Tens of thousands of yuan of layout fees are not small money for many authors. For the cost problem, first of all, in the long run, if we can publish an SCI paper, it will definitely be of great benefit to the author's future development. These help and benefits can't be measured by tens of thousands of yuan, that is, SCI journals have high publishing value compared with other academic journals. On this basis, we should try to reduce unnecessary expressions or charts, Try to reduce the length without affecting the core content of the article, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the layout expenses.

  The price of SCI papers charged for layout has changed, and the impact factors of SCI journals are constantly updated every year, but the purpose of submission is rarely changed. Even if they give great affirmation to SCI papers worthy of publication, don't dream of saving layout fees. The layout fee does not have much to do with the impact factors of the article, but is calculated according to the number of words in the author's paper and the number of charts. There are also a few SCI journals that are published free of charge, but these journals usually have higher requirements for articles than other SCI journals, that is, it will be more difficult to publish.
