.edu and .gov backlinks are said to hold more weight with search
engines compared to regular domains such as .com and .net. This is
because EDU backlinks are a lot harder to get than other links and are
seen as more trustworthy.
Learning how to find and build links on EDU and GOV sites can help
you achieve a good search engine position for your chosen keywords much
more easily. One thing you must bear in mind is link building should
appear natural to search engines. This means the websites to which you
post your links must be relevant and do not post to LOADS of sites, just
hand pick a few.
Find EDU & GOV sites using Google
The easiest sites that allow you to link back to your website are
ones that will allow you to post comments, like blogs and forums. Here
is what you enter into a Google search to find these sites, not
forgeting to change “ADD YOUR KEYWORD”.
Blogs:
site:.gov “add comment” OR “post comment” “ADD YOUR KEYWORD”
site:.edu “add comment” OR “post comment” “ADD YOUR KEYWORD”
site:.edu “add comment” OR “post comment” “ADD YOUR KEYWORD”
Forums:
site:.gov “powered by vbulletin”
site:.edu “powered by vbulletin”
site:.edu “powered by vbulletin”
So to summarise, EDU & GOV links can have positive effects on
your website’s search engine optimisation. But, and it is a big BUT,
you must be careful where you post links and how many you post. Ensure
that you post links to websites that are relevant to yours, do not spam
and choose a few websites with care.
