GreenRank Pro · CBD SEO Agency · since 2020
We help CBD brands rank, educate and convert in one of the most restricted digital markets. Organic visibility for CBD, hemp, cannabis, vape and snus — categories where Google Ads doesn't run, Meta paid age-gates, and SEO has to carry the pipeline. Three retainers, fixed pricing, six-month minimum, Plano-Texas based.
Packages
Same regulated-products SEO playbook across all of them — schema engineering, on-page AEO, compliance-aware content, named-expert bylines, link velocity. What changes is scope and the size of your query universe.
Google Ads won't run your CBD products and Meta age-gates them. SEO has to carry 70%+ of the pipeline — so we make sure it does.
Read full spec →Cannabis is legal state-by-state, never federally — which means SEO is built per jurisdiction, not nationally. Different rules in CO, CA, NY, MA, IL. We build the map.
Read full spec →Dispensary buyers don't browse — they Google '[city] dispensary near me' or open Weedmaps. We make sure your store is the first three pins, the top Weedmaps result, and the brand AI cites when asked.
Read full spec →FDA PMTA, age-gate, no Google Ads, Meta hostile, TikTok banned — vape is the most-restricted DTC channel in the US. That's why specialist SEO works when done right.
Read full spec →Hemp is federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill. Hemp-derived THC, CBG, CBN and CBC are exploding while regulation catches up. The SEO gap is wide open — for now.
Read full spec →Brick-and-mortar CBD shops have one Google query that matters: '[city] CBD store near me'. We make sure your store is the first three pins, with reviews, photos and verified hours.
Read full spec →Vertical pricing
Cannabis dispensaries run hotter because of state-by-state compliance. Headshops run cooler because Google Ads is selective rather than blocked. CBD/hemp DTC sits at base — the lead vertical.
1.0×
Lead vertical. Federally legal hemp-derived CBD (≤0.3% THC) under the 2018 Farm Bill. Google Ads broadly disallowed, Meta age-gated, Pinterest restricted, payment-processor friction. Long-tail blog and AEO citations carry most of the pipeline.
1.2–1.4×
State-by-state legality, no Google Ads, no Meta paid, local-pack and Weedmaps/Leafly the dominant discovery surfaces. Programmatic location pages and review velocity drive results. Higher multiplier reflects compliance copy and citation-source vetting.
1.0–1.3×
No Google Ads in most regions, age-gate enforcement, 21+ checkout, FDA PMTA constraints (US vape). Snus/pouches more permissive in EU and CH. Long content with regulatory citations + on-page age verification builds trust and indexability.
0.7–1.0×
Selling accessories (bongs, grinders, papers, vaporizers) is generally permitted but Google Ads selective. SEO-leaning channel mix, lower compliance overhead than CBD-ingestible products, fast cycle to results.
Method
We audit Google Ads policy exposure, Meta CBD policy fit, FDA disclaimer status, state-restriction copy, and your AI-search baseline across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews.
Schema (Organization, Product, Service, FAQPage, Person, Review), llms.txt, robots.txt for AI crawlers, Core Web Vitals, mobile, internal linking, and 21+ age-gate (where required).
AEO-structured posts and pillar pages, named-expert bylines, programmatic location pages for dispensaries, and link velocity through HARO and regulated-industry trade press.
We track Google Ads policy shifts, Meta cannabis-policy updates, state-law changes and FDA enforcement letters. Then re-rank your query universe and adjust the calendar.
Free 30-minute discovery call. We'll pull your real CBD search visibility live, name two or three quick wins, and tell you whether SEO is the right spend right now or whether you need to fix Google Business / Weedmaps / Leafly first.
