Why .edu is important?
I will reveal to you on why .edu is important in SEO or shall I say spamming. Take a look here
While checking the overture of the keywords “buy viagra” it returns 849 searches/day and a competition of 5,280,000. Which means this keywords is hard to rank. But it seems to me that .edu has the edge on some other viagra websites. If you’re asking how are these spammers got into this .edu websites. They just simply spam on the forums of this .edu websites by posting a link back plus a description to their websites. Also on this web page they even manage to create an html files to this .edu websites.
Here’s how I manage to spam a .edu sites.
Viola, it works wonders, a permanent .edu backlinks lol
So having .edu links is just a piece of cake. I wonder why someone would buy an ebook on how to get .edu links. You can refer to this post for more information on how to get .edu links.

[…] I remember the case of .org before. They suspected that .org ranks well in SERPs. After few discussion and case study they found out that .org is just like any TLD. How about .edu links? I have talked about it here. Basically TLD on my own point of view, it only matters to your audience. Most likely people type your domain name with a .com TLD.
