    having a back link from a site which has .edu in its URL (but not in domain) effects on SEO? For example, sites.google.com/a/something.edu links to a site something.com. Will something.com will be ranked high since it gets a link from sites.google.com/a/something.edu?

    Hi,

    There is no such links like sites.google.com/a/something.edu . .edu always appear in domain name, no inner pages can have .edu. if there is any such link it must be fake.


    Thanks & Regards
    Aria Evans

    some institutes offer google powered email service to its studends/faculty. that email address can also be used for other google services including site.google. when used with site.google, google gives a url like sites.google.com/a/institute.edu. here is one real:
    https://sites.google.com/a/vu.edu.pk
