The international dissemination of quality research constitutes one of the main challenges for editorial boards of scientific publications. Among these is PNA, a Spanish journal on mathematics education research. In this paper we present insights on this issue from our experience as members of the PNA editorial board. By describing the process followed for giving international visibility to the journal and for guaranteeing its scientific quality, we aim to provide some operative points of reference to be used in new projects intending to disseminate quality research production.
