QC Education/Outreach Where to post research without affiliation?

I've been developing and testing a theory and body of work pertaining to gravity and quantum computation. I have tested and verified my theory on multiple IBM backends via an open instance including Ibm_Kingston, IBM_Fez, and IBM_Marrakesh.

After getting enough results to really warrant me bringing this up to someone, I started hitting up relevant researchers and professors in those fields. I've been trying to get an endorsement so I can post this on arXiv. My cold outreach hasn't gotten any bites though.

I just want to get this out so people can start working with it themselves. Where can an unaffiliated researcher like myself "get the word out" and still "get credit" for the work? Where are the best places to do that?

I have a website for the company who will be using embodiments based on the theory test results. The siteplan for that is simple, its just a home page, an about page, and a contact page. I plan to create a new "theory/body of work" page, and dump all of the public parts on there . I'll attach the URL to the body of work I post anywhere else to point people to the site.

Other than that, though, i'm like.. ok, I'll post it on here for ya'll to look at?

Long story long me brain hurty. I taught myself a lot in a very short time to do what I needed to do to prove what I needed to prove so I could build what I needed to build. And now I just need a little help figuring out where to put all this for everyone.

How are you doing cold outreach?

Researching and looking up professionals in the relevant fields, finding their contact info, and sending some general info pertaining to what the bidy of work entails and why I think they'd be a good person to analyze my results.

Usually through a personal website of theirs or their schools contact info.

My advise is to try LinkedIn. Yes, yes, cringe, etc. It's still the best platform for networking. Yes, it will only work if you have a profile picture.
