Can You Run Cannabis Ads on Google?

Google does not permit ads that promote the sale, use, or even provide information about cannabis. However, it is possible to run ads on Google for marijuana companies, and we have had success doing this for several customers. It is not allowed to advertise CBD on Google if the oil is derived from cannabis, but it is technically acceptable if it is made from hemp. This ambiguity makes investing in Google advertising campaigns a risky endeavor, as you could be excluded by Google. At the same time, there are ways to get around this restriction. For example, you can use a third-party platform to advertise your cannabis-related products.

This platform will act as an intermediary between you and Google, allowing you to advertise without running afoul of Google's policies. Additionally, you can use other search engines such as Bing or Yahoo to advertise your products. Another option is to focus on organic search engine optimization (SEO). This involves optimizing your website and content for search engine rankings. By doing this, you can increase your visibility in search engine results pages (SERPs) without having to pay for ads.

This can be a great way to get your products in front of potential customers without having to worry about Google's restrictions. Finally, you can also use social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter to promote your products. These platforms are not subject to the same restrictions as Google, so you can freely advertise your cannabis-related products without fear of being excluded.
