Easy to publish ABCD Index indexed journals with Low Fee

Here’s what I found out about ABCD Index Journals / ABCD Index, what it is, how it works, and what to watch out for. If you want, I can also pull up a list of some “good/legitimate” ABCD journals in your field. 

What is ABCD Index (Academic Business Current Data)

• ABCD Index is a platform (“Academic Business Current Data”) that gives information about journals: publisher, open/paid access, indexing status, journal score, etc.
• It allows journals to register in its database; then researchers/authors can search and filter journals by various criteria (country, subject area, whether they charge a fee, open/paid, etc.).
• It has a program called RAMP (“Research Article Medium of Publication”) which helps authors find journals to publish in, including ABCD-verified ones.

Here are several international journals / open-access options that offer relatively low publication fees (APCs) or nominal charges. Also some guidance on what to check before submitting, to avoid predatory journals. If you tell me your field (e.g. engineering, social sciences, biology etc.), I can suggest ones more specific to you.

If you are a researcher looking to publish, here are good practices:

• Use ABCD to find candidate journals in your subject that are free/low fee or have acceptable conditions.
• For each candidate, check:
  • Do they have proper peer review?
  • What is their publication fee (if any)?
  • Are they listed in Scopus / Web of Science / UGC CARE if that matters for your institution?
  • Look at recent issues: formatting, editorial board, whether they are releasing issues regularly or skipping.
• Use filters on ABCD Index: free vs paid, country, subject, etc., to narrow down. Abcd Index

If you want, I can find some good ABCD-indexed journals in your subject area (e.g. science, engineering, social sciences), that have low or no fees and relatively good reputation. Do you want me to do that?
