The present research paper aims at investigating the major obstacles researchers in Algeria are likely to face when publishing scientific articles on the Algerian Scientific Journal Platform. Therefore, it is hypothesized that if researchers whether being PhD students or university teachers were provided with adequate ‘how to publish an article’ trainings they would face fewer obstacles in writing and publishing scientific articles. Interestingly, the researcher opted for quantitative research by the use of a questionnaire that was administrated to Algerian researchers. Findings revealed that there are several types of obstacles that are faced by researchers in publishing their articles; the most claimed ones are related to the journals rules of publication and the long period of time taken by the journals’ reviewing peers. Thus, it is highly recommended to provide researchers with academic trainings at the level of curriculum and methodology as well as at the scientific level.
