PLoS had been operating at a loss until 2009 but covered its operational costs for the first time in 2010, [34] largely due to the growth of PLOS One. The success of PLOS One has inspired a series of other open access journals, [ 35 ] including some other mega journals having broad scope, low selectivity, and a pay-to-publish model using ...

A mega journal (also mega-journal and megajournal) is a peer-reviewed academic open access journal designed to be much larger than a traditional journal by exercising low selectivity among accepted articles.
As a rule of thumb, each field should be represented by fewer than ten positions, chosen by their impact factors and other ratings. Note : there are many science magazines that are not scientific journals, including Scientific American , New Scientist , Australasian Science and others.
The impact factor (IF) or journal impact factor (JIF) of an academic journal is a scientometric index calculated by Clarivate that reflects the yearly mean number of citations of articles published in the last two years in a given journal, as indexed by Clarivate's Web of Science.
