EDU domain name registration
Strange but this week I’ve been asked by my clients about the possibility of registration .EDU domain name. Not a big secret that search engines like google pay a lot of attention on domain name region and zone. And .edu domain name is considered among SEO specialist the best zone to have link from.
Well, in reality you cannot register EDU domain so easy. The registration is very limited and allowed to fully accredited institutions of higher education, such as 4year colleges, high schools, universities. In most cases .edu domain is for the schools located in the United States.
This domain zone registration is handled exclusively by EDUCAUSE. Educause is nonprofit organization working to promote the intelligent use of IT in education. So if you do not represent university or college – it’s almost impossible to get EDU domain name.
And yes – link builders and search engine spammers can forget about this domain name zone
