To do this, first make sure conversions are tracked for that product. Then open the report that shows traffic sources like search, social, or email. Compare how many visits each source brings and how many of those visits end in a sale. Conversion rate means sales divided by visits. This shows quality, not just volume. A smaller source can perform better than a bigger one. How do you decide which source deserves more budget after seeing this data?

First, make sure the product purchase or conversion is being tracked. Then go to the traffic or acquisition section to see where visitors are coming from. After that, filter the data so it only shows that product. Once that's done, compare the conversion rates for each traffic source. The one with the highest percentage is the source bringing in visitors who are most likely to buy. That tells you where your best customers are coming from

After reviewing the conversion rate data, more budget should go to the traffic source that shows the best combination of a high conversion rate and a reasonable cost. A high conversion rate means the visitors from that source are more likely to buy the product. It is also important to check the cost per conversion to make sure the sales are still profitable. Sometimes a smaller source performs better than a larger one, so increasing the budget gradually and monitoring results can help confirm if it continues to deliver strong returns.

I think the first step is to track every traffic source properly so you can see where visitors are coming from. If the tracking is not set up well, the data will not be accurate, and it becomes hard to know which source is really performing best for a product.
Go to Reports > Acquisition > Traffic acquisition, then add a secondary dimension for "Product name" or use a custom report. Filter for that specific product. Look at the table and compare Conversion rate across sources like Organic Search, Direct, Paid, Social, etc. The source with the highest percentage wins. A 20% conversion rate from just 5 visits means nothing. Also, watch for attribution issues. Set up conversion events specifically tied to that product's purchase or add-to-cart.
