The goal of the Chabad UF Facebook page is not to encourage click-through to the website.
The website is currently only used for donations. This is why overall website traffic and the
conversion rate are so low. In the future it would be beneficial to also post events on the Chabad
UF website and encourage more website traffic.

7. Social Audit: Competitor Assessment
Competition Name Social Media Profile Strengths Weakness
UF Hillel FB: @UFHillel Page has lots of follower
and high engagement.
Page posts multiple times a
day and does not promote
events.
UF JSU FB:
@UFJewishStudentUnion
Uses lots of visuals. Page posts infrequently and
has very little engagement.
Cover photo is very outdated.
Chabad UF hosts more events and has higher attendee than these two competitors. However
Chabad UFâs social pages have less followers than that of UF Hillel. Like UF Hillel, Chabad UF
should post fun content, not just related to their events, in order to increase engagement. Chabad
UF should continue to post at its current frequency and should invite followers of these two pages
to follow Chabad UF.

greatly, but we have not yet met our engagement goal. We hope engagement increases as we publish more
events and engaging content.

This has led to higher volume, overall traffic, and conversion rate of website traffic on Facebook and
Instagram. We hope to increase these numbers more in coming quarter.
