A well-done review paper is among the most cited types of article. It needs a clear scope, a transparent search and a synthesis that adds insight, not just a list of studies.

What we help with

  • Defining the question and scope
  • Search strategy across Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Google Scholar and others
  • Screening and organising the literature by theme, method or period
  • Synthesis: trends, debates, gaps and an agenda for future research
  • Tables, concept maps and a PRISMA flow diagram where needed
  • References in the target journal's style

For a full systematic review or meta-analysis, see systematic literature review (SLR).

Questions and answers.

Do you guarantee acceptance in a Scopus or Web of Science journal?

No, and nobody honestly can. Every reputable journal decides through its own editors and peer reviewers. What we do is improve your chances: we choose journals whose scope and standards genuinely fit your paper, prepare the manuscript to their guidelines, and help you respond well to reviewers.

Be careful with anyone who promises guaranteed publication in an indexed journal. It is the most common sign of a predatory or fake journal service.

How long does publication take?

It depends on the journal. Peer review alone can take from a few weeks to several months, and revisions add time. When we shortlist journals for you, we give the typical review time for each, so you can choose one that fits your deadline.

If you have a firm deadline, such as a thesis submission or a promotion, tell us at the first consultation. If it is not realistic, we will say so.

How can I check that a journal is really indexed?

Search for the journal by its ISSN in Scopus Sources (for Scopus) or Clarivate's Master Journal List (for Web of Science). Check that the ISSN and publisher match and that coverage continues to the current year. Reach the journal's website through the link in that record, not through an email.

We share these links for every journal we recommend. Our guide How to check whether a journal is really indexed in Scopus explains each step.

Will you write my paper or thesis for me?

We guide, review and edit; the research, the ideas and the authorship stay yours. Our experts help you plan the structure, choose and justify the methodology, analyse your data, improve the language and format the work to your university's or journal's rules.

We do not submit work in your name that you did not do, sell authorship, or help anyone get around plagiarism rules. That protects your degree and your reputation.
