Easy ways to get .edu backlinks

    Many times, few of my Webmaster friends have asked to share tips to get .edu backlinks. I am hereby sharing few easy ways which worked for me in reality. They are as follows:-
    1. If you are an expert in any of your favorite subject, offer the admin of educational website some free tutorial articles periodically on that subject but they should posses enough knowledge in it. This method is known as content knowledge sharing.
    2. Most of the College admins have little or no knowledge about marketing their website , just share few basic optimization pointers about their website to the relevant webmasters which should work a bit and they will surely give you link back.
    3. Colleges have sponsorship programmes to encourage poor but brilliant student, be a donor there. They might put your link in their sponsor page.
    4. In this world of stress, offer to organize a camp of meditation or self healing for the students. That can work quite well for you.
    5. Work as a part-time online guest lecturer of college

    Kindly add up more points here.

    You can also hold some sort of scholarship contest for a local university. Best online video gets a $200 scholarship. It buys you a link and probably gets you at least 50 submissions to help your own SEO efforts even more.

    seriously these are "easy ways to get edu backlinks"

    So I sign up to be a part time lecturer - hmmm slight hard

    So i have to be an education expert - hmmm that rules most people out and makes it hard

    be a donor on sponsorship pages - hmmm sounds very expensive and only a handful of edus do this making that hard

    contact the webmaster and pat him on the head - thats not hard but will not getting you any links.

    arrange to do meditation?? - oh come on

    EASY WAY: buy scrapebox and run a custom footprint, you can pick up 50 good backlinks a day

    .edu links can drastically increase your SERP's and so does .gov links so dont give up and keep on looking for them

    Nice tips. I particulary like "sharing few basic optimization pointers about their website for a link" one.

    sandy121, you explain how to get backlinks in a natural way, the way your visitors and search engines will appreciate. Good methodology but it's a bit hard... but result can be great as well.

    As for ronmac, he just offer you to spam edu websites. Don't we have enough spam already? google and other search engines will discount these kind of links, so no use. See... no pain - no gain.

    ronmac, you should stop advertising spamming. Don't you just love it when you log in to wp admin you have hundreds of comments to moderate and they are all spam?

    Preate: what are you talking about "advertising spamming" - because I said "spam away", get a grip its called a turn of phrase.
