Quote From dgi:

The time issue is very important. For applications purposes, it is better a paper published in a lesser rank journal, than one submitted in a top one.

Besides, in terms of future citations of your work, I find other factors (presentation at conferences, collaborations, personal networks, etc.) much more important than just a journal impact factor. Imho as long as a journal has a decent reputation and proper indexing, it is not crucial if they are not top in their category.

That is so true. There is a great new website that allows users o post there experience with turnaround times.

Economics scholars have started using it a lot. There are humanities journals listed but no posts from scholars from Humanities. I'm sure once humanities scholars start posting it will be a valuable resource for you. You might want to look at the site and convince your colleagues to submit their experiences. The more posts the better off everyone will be. I'm an economist and I love it.
