🚀 Scopus vs. Web of Science — Quick Comparison for Researchers 🎓
Choosing where to publish your research? Here is a short and clear breakdown of the world's top two academic databases:

🏢 Ownership & Scope
Scopus: Managed by Elsevier. It is larger, indexing over 28,000+ modern and fast-growing journals.
Web of Science (WoS): Managed by Clarivate Analytics. It is more selective, focusing on 21,000+ traditional, fundamental journals.

📈 Metrics & Focus
Scopus: Uses CiteScore and SJR rankings. It offers excellent coverage for Social Sciences and Humanities.
Web of Science: Uses the famous Journal Impact Factor (JIF). It is the gold standard for Natural, Exact, and Medical sciences.

🏆 Quartiles (Q1–Q4)
Scopus: All journals are clearly divided into Q1–Q4 tiers on Scimago.
WoS: Quartiles are strictly applied to its main core collections (SCIE, SSCI) that receive an Impact Factor.

💡 Summary: Choose Scopus for broader reach and modern visibility. Choose Web of Science for maximum prestige and historical depth.

H-INDEX
📩The H-index is an author-level metric that measures both the productivity and citation impact of a researcher’s publications.
➡️Examples of the largest databases that calculate the H-index include:
➡️- Google Scholar
➡️- RINS
➡️- Web of Science (Clarivate Analytics)
➡️- Scopus, among others
🔈In our country, the following H-index scores are recommended for evaluating the scientific activity of various categories of scholars in higher education institutions:
➡️- 0 to 2 – Suitable for researchers who are just beginning their scientific careers (independent researcher, PhD student);
➡️- 3 to 6 – Candidates of Science;
➡️- 7 to 10 – Doctors of Science;
➡️- 11 to 15 – Distinguished researchers;
➡️- 16 and above – Researchers with a global reputation.
🔄Methods to increase your H-index:
🔼Method 1: Conduct quality research
🔼Method 2: Adhere to guidelines
🔼Method 3: Publish articles in English

💡Did you know?💡
📚What is an Impact Factor?
📌The Impact Factor is a numerical indicator of the number of citations received by articles published in a scientific journal.
📝How is the Impact Factor calculated?
It uses the following formula:
IF(year) = A/B
✅A – The number of citations in the determined year to articles published in the journal;
✅B – The number of articles published in the journal in the previous two years.
👤Who calculates the Impact Factor?
This is a crucial question. Not everyone handles this task. Currently, the IF of scientific journals is calculated by "Clarivate," a company under Thomson Reuters, widely recognized for this purpose.
📨Why is the Impact Factor important?
This is another significant question. The goal of publishing a research article is to present a solution to an unresolved issue in the field to the public.
