Today I noticed a job posting at Search Engine Watch where the Obama campaign was looking for an internet marketing specialist. I’ve provided a copy of this job opening for an SEOs out there that want to support the Obama campaign by doing a little SEO work for them.
Barack Obama has amassed an army of people to support him financially and politically online. This is a stark contrast to what the other candidates have been able to do. Check out this some-what dated graph of myspace and youtube figures.
Earlier this year more than $54 million in February was raised for the primary election.. His combined January and February totals nearly matched was he raised last year. The campaign said it raised $45 million through the Internet in February and had 385,000 new contributors for a total of more than 1 million donors.
