Huge list of Free .EDU links, without “nofollow”

by Lim CS on May 5, 2007

Brandon Hopkins posted about his 64,200 .edu links secret. Ok, it’s not really any secret. It’s simply a Google search for blogs (and their comment section) under the .edu domain name.

Unfortunately, those links wear condom. Meaning, the links are tagged with “nofollow”, which provide no weight to search engines. Too bad.

Anyway, I’m going to give you a list of free .edu websites.

Firstly, be very cautious. A few of these are obvious bad neighborhood (even with the .edu domain name). And, most are forums, and some with strict moderation, not easy to sneak your links in. Lastly, it is not my recommendation for you to spam get links from these websites. If you got penalize, well, go complain elsewhere ;) Here you go:
