List of 50 .edu Blogs for Building Backlinks

When you are commenting on a blog, and placing links of your URL site, it can give dofollow link to the your sites. However, most blogs are now marked with nofollow tag, which is useless in search engines. But I disagree with that statement. Although from the post that you've already commented on, your site was not getting indexed by the search engine, Google still counted the blogs domain as your backlinks. You can see it in your Google Webmaster tools, links to your site pages.

Also it's still managed to drive traffic to your site. Your blog comment will get clicked on by the blog's admin and the readers of the blog, only if your comments are, interesting, giving curiosity to know who has wrote the comment, controversy with the blog post's point of view, or related to the discussion of the other commenters who also posted on the blog.

Although .edu and .gov sites don't improve your site PR automatically, having backlinks from them were believed by many SEO experts as the Google juice links, and might improve your site visibility in Search Engine Result Pages (SERPs), due to .edu and .gov sites are having high and trusted rank.

On the list below, .edu and .ac blogs are just the same thing. I try to sort them in alphabetical order. Some blogs were auto approved enable, or without comment moderation.

One thing you should keep in mind, when you're going to place your URL links, please don't spam! Keep your comment as natural as you can, because some blogs above, in which auto approved comment enable, were filled with thousands of spam comments. If a blog full with spam comments, sometimes it might have been deleted by the admin.

Please give feedback by commenting below, if one of above links was no longer exist (dead links), so that I can replace with another.
