WOW! An .EDU domain with no comment filter on

AFI · 11-02-2010, 11:46 AM

I can't believe what I found. Is it too good to be true?

Are there really that many .EDU domains that aren't moderated? Have you come across many in your submitting ventures?

*BOOKMARK*

J Bold · 11-02-2010, 11:47 AM

Yes, spam away, heh heh.

And you'll get a bunch of PMs now, as others want to spam away as well!

AFI · 11-02-2010, 11:51 AM

Technically I wasn't spamming because the blog actually had relevance to my site/niche so I think it's gonna stick! Hooray!

What kind of criteria do you have to meet to register an .EDU domain anyway? I mean I know you have to be a school of some sort but who's to say I don't have a School for Internet Marketers? Does anyone know the criteria you have to meet before you can get an .EDU domain?

Rough Outline · 11-02-2010, 12:17 PM

There are loads of unmoderated .edus, I use a special google search formula and find them

LMC · 11-02-2010, 12:24 PM

.edu registration is handled by: .edu Home Page

Here is their criteria: http://net.educause.edu/edudomain/eligibility.asp

Hey I am! I even spoke to the lady on the phone about it since I'm in New England. Anyone want to open a Internet Marketing Vocational College with me?

No seriously though?

Are you accredited as a school?

I too live in NE does the location qualify you?

If you've got the stamina for it, the experience, and the contacts you might have the beginnings of a winning formula. Do it properly, and you will be in a position of being able to help a lot of people.

Go for it.

Location isn't really a qualifying factor, well unless your applying for a .edu in the UK (ac.uk) when you live in the US and have no physical UK presence.

One of the issues with setting up a IM college would be you need a physical property as well as courses that carry some official accreditation with the country your applying to.

There are some but they're quickly overrun by porn and male enhancement spammers (not to mention regular IM folks who believe a .edu link is the lucky charm that will lead to riches) and lose any outbound link authority.

FredJones · 11-04-2010, 10:18 AM

Wow - spooky EDU? !!!

But no, really, how? Of course, tell us NOT how and we shall try to figure the rest

TomBuck · 11-04-2010, 10:52 AM

Whats the Link?

AFI · 11-04-2010, 10:54 AM

I think the EDU must have some sort of authority though. I was only saying that it would be easier for me to qualify because one of their accreditation services was called "New England something or other"......Anyway I have no desire to have an EDU domain. I just want to post on them.

Of course there are ways to get one if you know who to talk to.

I'm not going to go into more detail as Well I like having a .edu and unlike the masses of marketers willing to sell there "master system" that made them rich to everyone who has a mouse.

I'm going to be greedy and keep this one to myself.

though I know a man who rants .edu sub-domains and someone who sells article/ link space on his .edu
