Maybe it is because I live in Central Florida but I rarely see the ads. I see the occasional Disney ad but most of the media I see for Universal is event oriented.

I see alot more Universal advertising than Disney down here in South Fl. Especially on those electronic billboards.

WESH 2 is the only place I see Universal ads.

I see a lot of stuff on the news, and I obviously see billboards.

It also doesn't help WESH broadcasts NBC and has a Universal cam.....

Universal ended up 8th on Facebook's top 10 checked-in places of 2012. WDW didn't make the list. Disneyland was 2nd. I'm impressed.

There's nothing better than checking in at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Harry Potter World does wonders for Harry Potter Park.

Universal is a much more popular park within the demographic that would check in on facebook.
I think it's important to note that it was Universal HOLLYWOOD that was 8th, not USF.

Than why would Disneyland be #2?
The demographic for Disney World and Disneyland are, shockingly enough, completely dissimilar.
Have you actually looked at the listing of trends on the actual FB website? Here's an official Facebook pic of the top check-ins:
Notice it clearly mentions Universal Studios, CALIFORNIA

Either Facebook or UOR Social Media is getting it wrong (point of this thread.) Facebook has it as Hollywood in the picture you posted, and Florida in the 2nd picture I posted.
Hollywood and Disneyland make sense though because of the "Hollywood Culture" out there.

UOR is doing some kind of vacation deal with KMart right now and the nationwide ads are very compelling. Even here in ice-land.

They did that last year too IIRC.
Is it just me or what, I find it strange that Universal's FB post today is like for Fireball or comment for Horntail with a image of DC to vote for your favorite dragon. They are down for two weeks or so while work is on going on in the area so the timing seems off. As much as I love UOR I am really not impressed with whoever's handling their social media and not just based off today's post, just in general they don't grab my attention very often.

Nice catch. I was thinking the same thing when I saw that earlier.
