I am in the process of publishing a paper on Generalized fractional logarithm and associated dilogarithm function. I am using the following site sharelatex which seems easy to follow and I like the idea of compiling online and converting to PDF so easily . Do you have experience with this site ? .

Why wouldn't you just use your own editor? I think you are taking a leap of faith to put an un-published paper on some random site to compile for you. If it was me, I know the paper would be secure until submitted if I compiled my own document.
