Traffic is not the problem when the product page is weak. If mobile load time crosses 3 seconds, Google research has shown huge drop-off risk. The product page has to close the gap between interest and purchase in one screen.
What must be above the fold?
Headline, benefit, price, shipping promise, proof, and CTA.
Why are ads expensive?
Because every extra second or every unclear claim lowers conversion efficiency.
How do you know it is broken?
If add-to-cart is low but traffic is steady, the page is the leak.
What should you track?
View-to-cart, cart-to-checkout, and checkout-to-purchase.
