Nowadays, the page fees of general periodicals are generally rising, not to mention the core. The era of publishing ordinary periodicals for several hundred yuan has passed. At present, the number of pages in general journals may be several hundred. If there are at least two pages, 1000 to more than 2000. More words, more pages.

If the author's major is medicine or pedagogy, the page fee may be more expensive, and it is ok to send a general journal paper for several thousand yuan.

As for the core journals, not to mention the cost, it costs 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, and the time period is relatively long, so it is impossible to check the manuscripts. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone vote for SCI, which can be officially checked. This cost performance ratio is much higher than that of core journals.

It's normal to charge a deposit for publishing a paper, but the proportion of charging half is really too high. Generally speaking, there is basically only a nominal fee here, more to prevent some unscrupulous authors from taking our revised papers and switching to other journals, which is equivalent to using us to help him revise his papers for free. So this fee is definitely not high, but it can stop some authors with ulterior motives.

In order to attract the author, some intermediaries deliberately say that accepting the deposit is a dishonest liar intermediary. This hat is really too big. It is normal for regular paper publishing institutions to collect deposits. Just because of the symbolic deposit, you can filter out some unreliable authors and make time to serve more sincere and disciplined authors.

Some intermediaries who don't charge a deposit will do this simply because there are too few authors looking for him and his time and energy are worthless, so they can do it without charging a deposit. If the author doesn't send it, it can only be forgotten. If he does this, he can earn a little.
