Articles published in DMD, JPET, MOL, and PharmRev now have Altmetric badges that show the attention they have received on social media, blogs, traditional media, and online reference managers such as Mendeley and CiteULike. The badges are located on the Info & Metrics tab. Monthly usage statistics showing hits to the article’s abstract and the full-text HTML and PDF versions are also provided.

ASPET journals added social bookmarking in September 2013, enabling readers to easily note articles of interest through Twitter, Facebook, and Google+.  During the past summer, Kudos was added as a service to authors to make it easy to share their research through social media. The addition of Altmetric brings those features full circle by providing a concise and simple way to track their use and track attention to articles from other sources such as traditional news outlets.

A detailed explanation of Altmetric and its scoring system is given on the Altmetric page.

These author services and others make ASPET journals a great place to publish your research.
