Month 1:
Technical fixes that move the needle on visibility: A cleaner Google Business Profile, better crawlability on the pages that matter and local rankings start moving.
We understand cannabis regulations and platform restrictions that other agencies ignore. Our team knows which content gets flagged and which strategies actually work for dispensaries. We build sustainable SEO strategies that grow your business without risking compliance issues.
Our local focus captures customers within your delivery radius or driving distance. Cannabis customers travel farther for the right dispensary, so we optimize for broader geographic areas while maintaining local relevance.
Most SEO agencies optimize for traffic. We optimize for the right traffic.
A dispensary SEO program that drives 50,000 visits to your homepage but does not increase your daily ticket count is failing. A program that captures the strain-specific searches, “dispensary near me” Map Pack queries, and online-ordering intent that route shoppers to your store, is winning.
We work backward from your average ticket size and your product mix. The keywords that bring you a $90-AOV concentrate shopper are different from the ones that bring you a $25 pre-roll customer. Both matter. They sit in different content buckets, get tracked separately, and require different landing pages.
The same logic applies to loyalty and repeat visits. A new-customer first visit might cost you $30 in promotional pricing. A loyalty-program member with a 12-month track record is worth multiples of that. We build SEO that captures the searches likely to convert into repeat visits and basket growth, not just one-time discount hunters.
When your dispensary hires SearchLab, we do not work with the dispensary two ZIPs over. We do not work with the competitor on the other side of the highway. We pick a side.
Weedmaps and Leafly cannot say that. Their entire business is selling the same shopper to every dispensary that pays. That is fine for them. It is not fine for you.
When your shop signs with us, we pull for one operator in your market and one operator only. That is how SEO actually compounds for your store instead of getting split across three competitors.
In 2025, we analyzed Google Business Profile performance across more than 1,000 dispensaries. The findings shaped how we approach every cannabis client engagement we start today. If you want to see what works in your market and what does not, the study is free.

We specialize in multi-location SEO and each location gets its own strategy so nothing falls through the cracks.
Every business and every market is unique, but for most businesses, you can start to see traction within 6 to 8 months, with more significant gains happening around 12 to 14 months and beyond.
The ultimate gauge is increased sales. We make that happen through getting you more calls, more direction requests, and more customers walking through the door.
Factors such as your market, competition, and number of locations will influence the investment. We work with businesses of all sizes, and we’re happy to help you figure out what makes sense for your goals.
