Optimizing
Your Abstract for Search Engines
Many
students and researchers looking for information online
will use search engines such as Google, Yahoo or similar.
By optimizing your article/abstract for search engines,
you will increase the chance of someone finding it. This
in turn will make it more likely to be viewed and/or cited
in another work. We have compiled these guidelines
to enable you to maximize the web-friendliness of the most
public part of your article/abstract.
