Submission FAQs for Authors
This section provides detailed guidance for authors submitting manuscripts to journals published by Avo Publications (AVOPUB.ORG). The information below explains the submission process, editorial workflow, peer review system, and publication policies across all Avo journals.
1. How do I submit my manuscript? +
All manuscripts must be submitted electronically through the official online submission system available
on the respective journal website under the Avo Publications platform. Authors are required to create a
submission account, complete the metadata form, upload the manuscript and all supplementary files, and
confirm compliance with ethical and editorial policies before final submission.
2. What types of manuscripts does Avo Publications accept? +
Avo Publications accepts original research articles, systematic and narrative reviews, conceptual and
theoretical papers, case studies, technical reports, methodological papers, short communications,
and policy or practice-oriented studies. Each journal defines its specific scope, and authors should
carefully review the journal’s aims before submission.
3. Is simultaneous submission allowed? +
No. Manuscripts submitted to Avo Publications must not be under consideration elsewhere.
Simultaneous or duplicate submission violates publication ethics and may result in rejection or
blacklisting of the manuscript.
4. What peer review model is used? +
All submissions undergo an initial editorial screening followed by formal peer review.
Most Avo journals operate a double-blind peer review system, ensuring anonymity of both authors and reviewers.
Reviewers assess originality, methodological rigor, ethical compliance, clarity of presentation, and
contribution to the discipline.
5. What is the typical review timeline? +
Initial editorial decisions are typically communicated within 2–4 weeks.
Full peer review cycles may vary depending on reviewer availability and revision rounds.
Avo Publications prioritizes constructive, timely, and transparent review processes.

Some Avo journals charge APCs to support open access publishing,
while others operate on fully subsidized models.
All applicable fees are disclosed clearly before submission.
No fees are requested before peer review is completed.
7. When and how is payment made? +
Payment is requested only after formal acceptance of the manuscript.
Authors receive official invoices with secure payment options.
Avo Publications does not request payment for rejected or withdrawn manuscripts.
8. What happens if revisions are required? +
Authors will receive structured reviewer reports and editorial guidance.
Revised manuscripts must include a point-by-point response explaining how comments were addressed.
Failure to adequately respond may lead to rejection.
9. Who owns the copyright? +
Authors retain copyright of their work while granting Avo Publications
the right to publish and distribute the article.
Open access articles are typically licensed under Creative Commons frameworks.

indexed in academic databases where applicable,

Withdrawal may not be permitted once peer review or production has begun.

Corrections, expressions of concern, or retractions are issued when necessary,
following international publication ethics guidelines to preserve the integrity
of the scholarly record.
