No obligation. Your audit covers Google rankings, technical SEO and how AI engines answer for cannabis and CBD businesses like you.
Most buyers start with a phone search: dispensary near me open now, CBD store near me, dispensary that offers delivery or best dispensary for first time visitors. They check the map pack for hours, photos and reviews, look at the menu on Weedmaps or Leafly, and sometimes ask ChatGPT or Gemini which stores are nearby and what to know before a first visit. Where the category is legal, these searches stand in for the billboards and ads other retailers rely on.
Major ad platforms restrict or prohibit this category, so search and AI visibility do most of the work. Rules differ by state and country, so everything we publish is written to stay inside the limits that apply to you. Your listing, menu and local pages have to be accurate, readable behind an age gate and consistent across every directory, or customers will pick the store that is easier to verify.
What your customers are typing
Every one of these is a search Skyfield can win for you on Google and inside AI answers.
The problems we see most often when we audit cannabis and CBD businesses.
Most major ad platforms restrict or prohibit this category, so organic search, directories and AI answers carry nearly all of the discovery work.
An age verification overlay built the wrong way stops Google and AI assistants from reading the site, leaving the store invisible for menu and brand searches.
Third party menu embeds often load in ways search engines cannot read, so product, brand and category searches go to directories instead of your own site.
SEO, GEO and website development from one team, built around how cannabis and CBD businesses actually win customers.
Rankings and leads from Google for the services and locations cannabis and CBD businesses compete on.
Generative engine optimization so ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews recommend you.
A cannabis or CBD website has to verify age without hiding from search engines, show a menu people can read, and make store hours, location and pickup details easy to find. Skyfield builds these sites compliance-minded and SEO-ready from the first day.
We start with a Google Business Profile that follows current listing rules, with the right categories, hours, photos and a steady stream of reviews, then clean up listings on Weedmaps, Leafly and local directories. On the site we build pages for the product categories you carry, brand pages, pickup or delivery details where permitted, and a page for each town you serve. We make menus readable by search engines, set up age gates that do not block crawlers, and write educational content about formats, store visits and local events that stays free of health claims.
Every campaign runs on our Five Pillars of SEO framework and reports from your own Google Search Console and GA4 data, so the numbers you see are the numbers Google sees.
Get a Free SEO AuditWhen someone asks ChatGPT or Gemini for a dispensary nearby or a CBD shop that carries a certain format, the answer draws on Google Business Profile data, Weedmaps and Leafly, Yelp, local news and store sites that list hours, products and policies in plain language. We add LocalBusiness and Store schema with hours, location and product categories, write answer-first pages on first visits, formats you carry and how pickup works, keep your details identical across every directory, and track the prompts customers use so you can see when your store is named.

One free audit covers your technical SEO, rankings, local presence and how ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity currently answer for your business.
Plans start at $1,500 per month and include SEO and GEO together. A single-store shop usually fits Launch, while multi-location operators and brands selling across many markets typically need Growth or Authority.
Google Business Profile, listing and age gate fixes often show movement in one to three months. Category and town pages take three to six months to rank, and we report weekly so you can see calls and direction requests.
For most stores in this category, organic search and AI visibility are the main discovery channels because ad platforms restrict it. A strong profile, crawlable menus and consistent citations reach people when they search, and that work builds over time.
People ask AI assistants where to shop and what to know before a first visit. Where the category is legal, the answer names a few stores, and if yours is not one of them those customers never see you. GEO makes your location, hours and products clear.
Rules on content and incentives vary by state and platform, so we follow the rules that apply to you and send content through your compliance review if you have one. We ask customers for reviews after visits and never offer incentives for them.
Calls, direction requests and website clicks from Google Business Profile, rankings and clicks in Search Console, visits, pickup orders and form submissions in GA4, and a tracked list of AI prompts showing when your store is named. It all lives on a weekly Monday.com board.
