I have some papers published in some journals in India, but Google Scholar does not index those journals. What approach can I take to get these papers indexed by Google Scholar?

I tried uploading the papers to Academia.edu, but it didn't work. I don't have an institutional email and webpage at this moment. My research field is computer science.

    google scholar indexes arxiv.org – Thomas May 18 '17 at 05:46
  • @Thomas Thanks for your comment. Any other option? – Anuj May 18 '17 at 05:48
  • @Thomas The problem with arxiv.org is that when I want to submit my paper, it says "You are not endorsed for this archive. See endorsement help or request endorsement". And I don't know someone who can endorse me. – Anuj May 18 '17 at 05:59

  • @scaaahu So, there is no option other than arxiv? – Anuj May 18 '17 at 06:07

    You could try Zenodo or your local institutional repository. There are also some discipline specific repositories. Please add your research field to the question. – FuzzyLeapfrog May 18 '17 at 06:11
  • Edited--This is receiving close votes as a "shopping" question, but it seemed to me like that could be solved by slightly rewording it. The answer, to me proves that it is not essentially just a shopping question, since it gave some approaches to finding a repository rather than a list of repositories. –  May 18 '17 at 15:56

Besides the already mentioned options arXiv and Zenodo, you can also check if your have a local institutional repository and whether it is indexed by Google Scholar. Additionally, you can search in OpenDOAR (DOAR = Directory of Open Access Repositories) for repositories based upon subject area, content type, repository type, ...
