Dispensary SEO Guide

Every month, millions of shoppers search “dispensary near me” on Google, and the top-ranked stores snag the lion’s share of those clicks. The most successful cannabis brands secure that visibility and convert it into store visits and revenue. The old cannabis playbook to make that happen? Run some ads on Weedmaps, Leafly, or other platforms, and hope you see a return on investment. Pair that with a bare-bones website and a solid POS system, and you were once relatively good to go. That approach is history, however. Today’s marketing landscape requires a more strategic approach. Our cannabis dispensary SEO guide equips brands to dominate Google for high-value keywords your competitors are already leveraging to outrank you. If you’re ready to boost revenue without relying on paid directories, this cannabis SEO strategy is your roadmap.

Get Your Cannabis Dispensary Google Business Profile (GBP) Verified with CannaPlanners

Recent changes to Google’s verification process have made it significantly harder for cannabis dispensaries to get their Google Business Profiles (GBPs) verified and live. Without a verified profile, your dispensary won’t appear in local search results, meaning that you will have significant missed opportunities for foot traffic and online orders. At CannaPlanners, we know how to navigate these new challenges and can help you get your GBP up and running so you can rank higher, build trust, and get discovered by ready-to-buy customers.
