Is it allowed to advertise CBD Oil on Google Ads?

[Barokna]

I’m almost certain it’s a no-no. But google will tell you as soon as you upload creatives.

[pups-pups]

No, your ads will be disapproved.

[Bumbymoo]

If it’s not, it’s simply ridiculous.

[bubbleblub17]

Allowed no, possible yes.

I’m pretty sure it’s against their advertising guidelines. Then again, with some creative wordplay, you can get around it. It’s just a lot of trial and error. I’m not sure if it’ll work for CBD oil though. I used to work for a crypto company…with a lot of trial and error, adjusted messaging and a ton of time invested in trying to get it going, we managed to advertise on Google Ads.

I worked in the GDN department. We wouldnt punish ads or sites mentioning CBD. But those KWs would get punished before 2018 I believe. It should be OK now.

I wouldn’t go google ads unless you got a lot of time and money to test out. Theres a few cannabis friendly platforms to advertise on but they are also expensive. Mantis is one of them. I’ve also seen a lot of cannabis related ads on snapchat targeted to myself. So that might be something you can take a look at

I ran CBD water search ads for about 16 months 2018 – 2019 in every state. Later I learned in a few states it is illegal but no one said anything.

It’s against ad guidelines. I have run into this issue even from the affiliate coupon space where CBD ads were disapproved. It’s a hassle and not worth your time.

Definitely check out StackAdapt if you’re having issues on Google Ads. They have some good CBD inventory and targeting options.

[gogetjesska]

id worry this would somehow fall under their pharmaceuticals or medicine rules. if you do try it let me know how it goes!

[yoshi105]

There’s ways around it but I doubt you’ll find anyone willing to get into the specific details. You never know who’s lurking around these subs

[Danger_Mouse8]

there are lots of hemp oil ads in the UK, nothing for CBD oil though

[cuteman]

You can’t do Google unless it’s hemp only not cbd.

You CAN do Snapchat but they have crazy compliance requirements.

You CAN use programmatic/rtb at scale but this is highly dependent on your existing traffic/revenue because it’s based on how much retargeting.

We have an agency we use for our paid ads that has been producing lots of cbd content. They seem to have a pretty good formula for success and they’ve got a few of the top 20 accounts.
