# How Kudos builds views of your research

You want your research to make a difference. To influence policy makers, to be picked up in the media, to be applied by industry, by educators, by practitioners, by the general public. Achieving this level of research influence and impact requires effective communication. By [telling the Story of your research on Kudos](https://info.growkudos.com/how-to-write-the-story-of-your-research?hsLang=en), you benefit from our expertise – read on to find out how we promote the Stories you write.

## Global Research Showcase

Make sure you have switched on "Showcasing" for your Story. (Access and edit your Story from your [Kudos hub](https://www.growkudos.com/hub/projects)).

[![Showcase your research on Kudos](https://info.growkudos.com/hubfs/image-png-Sep-28-2022-03-02-28-02-PM.png)](https://www.growkudos.com/hub/projects)

This means we'll promote it through our [Global Research Showcase](https://www.growkudos.com/showcase/). Thousands of people explore our Showcases every day – other researchers, members of the public, the media, policy makers, industry and more. 

Unlike other research websites, our Showcases are specifically designed to appeal to broad audiences. We want to make exploring science feel more familiar and comfortable, so we’ve adopted the ‘tile’ layout common to news websites, and we use lots of imagery to bring pages to life.

## Topical Showcases

Many people visit our site to explore a specific topic, such as climate change or artificial intelligence. We regularly set up curated Showcases to bring together a range of Stories for a particularly topic or subject area. If your research is relevant to one of our topics, we may promote it through one of our topical Showcases as well as through our Global Research Showcase.

## Search Engine Marketing

Like most website providers, we make sure our pages are coded in a way that will make them appear as near as possible to the top of search engine results pages. This is called Search Engine Optimization or SEO.

But as research communication professionals, we go beyond this. We also do Search Engine Marketing (SEM) to help people find research Stories about trending news topics.
