Digital Visibility Clinic

Three tools. One complete digital presence. ORCID · LinkedIn · WordPress.

Most researchers finish this clinic and say the same thing: they had no idea how invisible they were, and how fixable it was. In our sessions, you get a complete scholarly identity overhaul, a personal visibility strategy, and a verified certificate.

The Only Training That Proves You Improved

Every participant arrives with a score and leaves with a better one — both documented. No other research training programme in Nigeria currently offers this.

STEP 01

Before sessions begin

Your baseline score

Every participant — online and in-person — takes the free 12-point Researcher Visibility Scorecard. Four dimensions. Scored out of 100. That number is yours to keep.

STEP 02

5 live sessions

Targeted work on every dimension

Scholar Identity. Discoverability. Citation Health. Scholarly Communication. Each session directly addresses what the scorecard measures, so improvements are intentional — not accidental.

Real Researcher · Real Results

8 Years Publishing.
Almost Nobody Was Finding Her.

Dr. Amara Osei had 51 peer-reviewed publications and an h-index of 3. She assumed citations were slow because her field was small. The audit told a different story entirely.

What the Visibility Audit Found

17 publications not appearing on her Google Scholar profile, never discovered by the field
2 conflicting Scopus author IDs splitting her citation count in half
ORCID iD unverified, journals couldn't programmatically link her work
No institutional repository record updated since 2020
Research keywords not matching the terms her field actually searches for
Zero presence on ResearchGate, where 20M+ researchers find related work

The problem wasn't her research quality. It was that the discovery systems her field uses couldn't find her, because her identity across platforms was fragmented, incomplete, and unverified. None of this was visible to her until the audit.

“I had published consistently for eight years and assumed my citation count was low because public health in my region isn't well represented in global databases. The audit showed me the real reason: my work wasn't discoverable. Half my publications weren't even showing up when someone searched my name. That was the moment I understood that visibility isn't automatic, it's a skill. The clinic taught me that skill. Four months later, my h-index has moved for the first time since I started publishing.”

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

The clinic is designed for postgraduate researchers, early-career academics, established scholars, and institutional research staff in Nigeria and across Africa who want to improve how their research is found, cited, and engaged with. It is relevant across all disciplines — sciences, social sciences, and humanities alike.

A module is a single 2-hour live workshop focused on one specific tool or topic. A bundle is a package of multiple modules sold together at a significant discount. The Core Bundle includes the three foundational modules (ORCID + LinkedIn + WordPress). The Pro Bundle adds two advanced masterclasses on top.

Yes. Every module is available as a standalone purchase. If you already have a strong LinkedIn presence but need to fix your ORCID, you can buy the ORCID module only. If you want to start with one and upgrade to a bundle later, contact us via WhatsApp and we will apply your solo payment toward the bundle price.

The Core Bundle includes all three core modules: ORCID, LinkedIn, and WordPress. Together these three platforms form the complete foundation of a researcher's digital presence — your identity layer (ORCID), your network layer (LinkedIn), and your permanent home (WordPress). Most participants find that completing all three in sequence produces the biggest transformation.

The Pro Bundle adds two advanced masterclasses: Indexing (a deep-dive into Google Scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science optimisation) and Publishing Strategy (a frank session on navigating the global publishing system as a Nigerian and African researcher). It also adds a Full Scholarly Intelligence Report, a private strategy call, 90-day post-clinic WhatsApp mentorship, and a premium mailed certificate.

Yes. The three core platforms — ORCID, LinkedIn, and WordPress — are used by researchers across all disciplines. Our previous cohorts included microbiologists, environmental scientists, social scientists, and humanities researchers. The tools and strategies in this clinic are field-agnostic.

Live attendance is strongly encouraged. The small cohort size means real interaction and personalised feedback. However, all sessions are recorded and provided to enrolled participants — Core Bundle for 60 days, Pro Bundle for 90 days.

Almost certainly yes. In our experience, most researchers who believe their profiles are set up correctly have at least one significant gap — an unclaimed Scopus ID, a LinkedIn headline written like a CV, or an ORCID with missing publications. The clinic goes well beyond setup: it covers strategy, discoverability, and connection between platforms.

Passive content gives you information. The clinic gives you implementation. Every session ends with specific tasks you execute on your own profiles, with live feedback from the facilitator and your cohort peers. You leave with a completed, connected visibility system — not just notes.

Core Bundle: 3 live sessions over 3 weeks (August 2026), each 2 hours, plus platform activities of roughly 1–2 hours per week. Pro Bundle: 5 live sessions over 5 weeks with the same weekly activity rhythm. Total: approximately 10–14 hours for Core, 16–20 hours for Pro.

You will have a complete, verified ORCID profile, an optimised LinkedIn academic presence, and a live WordPress academic website — all connected to each other. Core and Pro Bundle participants also receive a physical and digital Certificate of Scholarly Visibility Practice.

Individual modules start from $79 USD per module. The Core Bundle (ORCID + LinkedIn + WordPress — 3 sessions) is $149 USD. The Pro Bundle (all 5 core sessions) is $239 USD. NGN-equivalent prices are shown at the live exchange rate on the pricing page. Group discounts apply for 3 or more researchers from the same institution.

Yes. Many participants attend under institutional professional development budgets. We provide a formal institutional letter you can present to your department head or finance officer. This programme has been delivered in partnership with the American Society for Microbiology (ASM), Nigeria Chapter, and the Department of Environmental Health Science, Federal University of Technology, Owerri (FUTO). Contact us via WhatsApp to request a tailored institutional letter.

Each cohort is limited to a maximum of 20 researchers to ensure every participant receives personal attention, peer interaction, and a high-quality experience.

A stable internet connection, an active research profile (or the intention to build one), and a commitment to completing the inter-session platform activities. No special software is required beyond a web browser.
