Return on Investment

We know how important ROI is to you, so we can supply you with download and citation data for your articles on request. Statistics for the top articles every 7, 30, and 90 days are also available on Springer Realtime. And as a courtesy, we e-mail the most downloaded authors each month to keep them updated on how many people are reading their work.

What we already know:

  • Individual article downloads are higher than the average Springer journal
  • Articles are getting downloaded much faster as they are available earlier
  • Our articles typically get higher citation counts as they are the most relevant published data and available sooner for citation

Availability of this type of information varies by journal and publisher, but we aim to be as transparent as possible with our authors, because we think it’s important they know just how valuable readers are finding their work.

Example of individual article citation data

We actively use social media to talk about our content, share publishing news, and connect with our audience. Have a look at our latest tweets here.
