    hi guys

    How do you get links from Univercity/college sites - like .edu sites etc.

    Is there usually a common place where you can add a link, or comment?

    Suggestions would be great!

    You can type:
    site:.edu inurl:wp-login.php
    site:.edu inurl:"wp-admin"

    at Google

    Depends on each webmaster. The default is nofollow.

    Not only blogs, you can search .edu forums at Google.

    .edu backlinks are great, and if they are valueless why do so many people on WF rave about them?

    Nonsense. .edu links are easy to get for any site. Its just not worth the effort put in to get them as they carry no more weight than any other tld

    Not all Wordpress blogs are dofollow.

    I agree with that. Much better if you'll look for some other link sources.

    I am interested in EDU backlinks as well. I have had some moderate success posting comments on EDU blogs even if they are NO FOLLOW, you do get an occasional visitor from them.

    Why do you desperatly need them? They are no more valuable than any other type of link. ... however, if you really want some, follow the viagra link I gave earlier in this thread.

    Google gives preference to .edu site. There is no doubt about that. I am maintaining a .edu site which is PR2 and has no backlink. This is really amazing. So I guess backlink from .edu sites is a bit more valuable then other TLDs.

    You can easily get them if your site is related somehow. My blog's about ebook readers so it's not problem as there are many university .edu blogs that discuss ebooks and ereaders.
