There are usually only two channels to publish a paper, either by yourself or by a paper publishing institution. No matter which channel you take, it will eventually be published in the journal.

Periodicals, also known as magazines, were once heavyweights in the publishing industry in the last century. At that time, the internet had not yet arisen, and it was far less convenient for people to read articles and obtain information. Magazines have become a very important medium.

But now with the progress of society and the development of science and technology, the paper media has declined greatly, and many periodicals have been cut down, and most of the rest have to find their own way out, especially academic periodicals. Because this audience is very narrow, it is basically impossible to make a profit, so it can only be maintained by charging a page fee. Of course, those with state financial allocations are not within this scope.

We are publishing academic papers now, but for the sake of rigor and authority, we still have to publish them in paper journals. Editors will use e-mail or internal systems to receive papers, but there will be no online platform with the qualification to publish papers. Even websites like HowNet and Wanfang are just paper databases, not paper publishing platforms.

Therefore, when publishing a paper, it is still necessary to select the target journal first, and then find the submission email address of this journal, or find a reliable paper publishing agency, which will be voted by the agent and finally published in a paper journal. It will be retrieved after about one or two months of publication.
