π― Recent Performance Summary
Analysis from Squarespace (cumulative) + Google Analytics (period comparison)
π 58% Download Decline Signals Resource Shift
Downloads fell sharply from 48 files (25 users) in Period 3 to 20 files (17 users) in Period 4, which includes Thanksgiving and early December holidays when resource-seeking activity typically declines. Healthcare downloads surged 27% (11β14), becoming the dominant resource category, while Vital Records/ID collapsed completely (16β0), School & Education dropped 80% (10β2), and Family Protection fell 67% (9β3).
π₯ Critical Services Outperform Traffic Decline
Traffic decreased 23% (744β572 visits) during the Thanksgiving and early December holiday period. Despite seasonal decline, Illinois traffic remained at 42% of total (243 of 572 visits). Hotline retained 77% of Period 3 traffic (296β227 views) and Healthcare sustained 88% (157β138 views)βboth significantly outperforming overall decline. Immigration resources remained stable (85β66 visits), demonstrating continued community need for these essential services even during holidays.
π Geographic Consolidation in Chicago
Chicago traffic declined 43% (241β138 users) while Illinois maintained 42% of total traffic (243 of 572 visits). Springfield (6), Schaumburg (6), and Peoria (6) showed consistent presence. Peak traffic days averaged lower (51-58 users vs 70-92 in Period 3), indicating steady baseline engagement without major spikes.
π± Social Media Resilience
Social media traffic held steady at 48 visits despite overall 23% traffic decline, growing from 6% to 8% as a share of total traffic. This resilience suggests social channels are becoming an increasingly important discovery path for the site, particularly as direct traffic declined from 72% to 62%.
π‘ Recommended Action
Monitor Post-Holiday Trends: Since Period 4 includes Thanksgiving and early December holidays, compare January 2025 data to determine if download patterns normalize or if resource usage shifts persist. Holiday timing may have amplified the 58% download decline and masked underlying trends.
