TL;DR - Quick Answer

Analyze Black Friday traffic sources by comparing conversion rate (not just volume) per source. Email and branded search typically convert at 3-5x the rate of cold social traffic - meaning traffic mix matters as much as traffic quantity.

How Do I Analyze Black Friday Traffic Sources?

Traffic source analysis separates stores that grow profitably from those that overspend. Volume of traffic means nothing if it doesn't convert. The goal is to identify your highest-converting, most cost-efficient sources - then invest more in those next year and cut what just generates traffic without revenue.

Organic search---Zero
Social (organic)---Low

The Right Metric: Revenue Per Session by Source

Calculate revenue / sessions for each source. Email typically generates $3-8 per session on Black Friday. Cold paid ads often generate $0.50-1.50 per session. This metric cuts through volume noise and shows true channel efficiency.
