How We Analyzed 3,475 Dispensary Profiles

We analyzed Google Business Profiles ranking in positions 1–20 across 24 U.S. cities, then isolated and compared the profiles ranking #1 and #10.

Using Places Scout and Ahrefs, we tracked rankings for the most competitive keywords, compared dispensaries in Position #1 vs. Position #10, and analyzed over 150 different data points: everything from categories and reviews to links, UTMs, and technical site factors.

Instead of chasing theories, you can finally see what actually separates top-ranked cannabis dispensaries from those stuck further down the map pack.

Inside this report:

  • The biggest GBP category mistake 60% of dispensaries still make
  • The UTM tracking errors 94% of dispensaries get wrong
  • Proof, not opinions → exact data showing what the best dispensaries are doing differently.
  • Clarity, not noise → which tactics move rankings vs. which are just conversion “proof.”
  • Practical checklists included → step-by-step actions you can implement immediately.
  • Benchmarks you can use today → so you know where your dispensary stands against the competition.
