SEO Menu FAQs

What is Dispense's SEO menu?

Dispense's SEO Menu is for dispensaries looking to boost and optimize their SEO - automatically. No more giving your sales away to marketplaces, this option lives on your domain and gives you highly optimized product content, meta data, and URL structures and is readable by search engines.

How can product based SEO help my dispensary?

Product-based SEO is the strategic optimization of product pages on your dispensary website. The goal is to provide search engines with enough contextual information for your product pages to rank well and drive additional website traffic.

Our SEO menu allows you to dynamically set your SEO strategy for all products, brands, and strain on your menu. Dispense also automatically builds structured data for your product pages to create rich results for your product pages.

Do I own my data? Is this a marketplace?

You own all of your customer and order data. Dispense is not a marketplace and will not sell or market your data to third parties.

The benefit of the SEO Menu option is that you also own the menu traffic data since the menu is on your own domain, so your menu data is searchable and discoverable via search engines (like Google), and routes to your main domain. This does not happen with iFrames because search engines consider the content in iFrames to belong to another website, so the content inside will not be indexed or available to appear in search results.

How do I set up Dispense's SEO Menu?

Setup usually only takes an hour or two. It's just as quick as an iFrame!
You can do setup yourself or our team can help you get up and running quickly! Book a demo with us to learn how.

Once set up, do I need development resources to maintain this?

‍No, post-setup there is no coding or development resources needed. Unlike some of the other native eCommerce offerings, Dispense's SEO Menu comes with the entire feature set out-of-the-box and stays up to date as we add more functionality.

Is Dispense's SEO Menu the same as a 'subdomain menu' option?

‍No, the Dispense SEO Menu is better for SEO than the subdomain option.

You'll get some SEO benefit from a subdomain option, but it will be from your subdomain and not from your main domain: Google treats subdomains as different sites, separate from the main domain. So this gets you part of the way there because it's better SEO than an iFrame, but it's not as good as the Dispense SEO Menu option that sits on your main domain to drive search traffic to it.
