Is Infuzion Spamming For Customers?
by Jason Kenney
Back in October West Of The Boulevard News posted about the upcoming Infuzion Ice Bar. Couple comments here, a couple comments there, months go by and suddenly, bam, mid-January you have yourself a regular ol’ deluge of comments coming in saying Infuzion is the bestest place in the whole wide world. Interestingly enough, the two or three cheerleaders for Infuzion have a strikingly similar writing style. And the conversation is still going.
Now maybe this is a case of people just Googling “infuzion” and finding WOTBN’s coverage on the place. But so much talking so far after the fact just strikes me as odd. Especially since it’s only people coming in and screaming “OMG, INFUZION ROXORZ!” (more or less).
So are we seeing people truly enjoying Infuzion or folks at Infuzion trying to get people to come enjoy it?
Comments
For what it’s worth, I’ve seen a fair amount of search-driven traffic on River District News for a few newly opened restaurants, especially LuLu’s. The hoodblogs do better in google than the restaurants official sites. The *enthusiasm* of the comments for infuzion are certainly suspect, though.
Over at West of The Boulevard News (http://wotbn.net), we’ve seen a lot of Google traffic for Infuzion and Moshi Moshi, the two newest restaurants in the area.
The owner of Infuzion reads the blog so we’ve had a lot of people posting their thoughts, both positive and negative. I think it’s been a great dialogue and definitely not all positive.
