Where links come from

Relevant categories for cannabis link building

You can build links from many niches, as long as they are integrated naturally. The links to major online cannabis businesses tend to come from these categories:

Health and fitness

CBD blogs, health and medical blogs, and fitness bloggers and influencers reach closely related audiences.

Sports

Blogs about physical sports reach active audiences that are often interested in wellness products.

Lifestyle and leisure

Lifestyle blogs cover everything from food to travel and reach a diverse audience.

Health claims and local rules

Google’s systems give extra weight to trustworthy content on topics like health, money and safety, and trust matters most. We take that into account when we place links: we read recent posts on every site, check that it fits your topic and market, and look for real editorial content before a site reaches your shortlist. Read more in our guide to YMYL and E-E-A-T in link building.

CBD and cannabis rules vary a lot by country and state, and what you can say about health is often restricted. We don’t give medical or legal advice. If your content makes health claims, you stay responsible for them.

We accept CBD and cannabis orders only through this service, for markets where promotion is legal. Some publishers decline the topic, so the sites we shortlist may be fewer than in other niches. You approve every site and the content before it is published.

Quality checklist

How we review CBD backlinks

Buying links from overcrowded sites with suspicious link footprints is risky. This is the checklist we use to evaluate websites.

  • Extra care for health topics: real publisher, editorial content, clear authors
  • Domain Rating (DR) of 20 or more
  • At least 800 organic visits a month, as a starting point
  • 200 or more referring domains, which points to a reasonable backlink profile
  • Consistent traffic: we check for sudden drops or spikes, which can indicate issues
  • Linked domains: too many compared with referring domains is a red flag
  • Sponsored content: we avoid sites that rely heavily on it, and tell you before you approve a site if a placement will carry a label
  • Relevancy: the link sits in a logical category on the site

Why CBD link building matters

Links from relevant sites help search engines and readers find your brand.

Advertising is restricted

CBD businesses face marketing restrictions that limit traditional advertising, and strict rules on paid ads mean organic search is often a main channel.

Readers find and trust you

Links and mentions on relevant health, wellness and lifestyle sites put your brand in front of people who are already interested in the topic.

A competitive, fast-growing market

In a crowded market, links from relevant sites help your brand stand out in search results. They support your visibility, but they don’t guarantee rankings.

Reviews

What clients say

Real reviews from agencies and brands we work with.

Magfellow have been great to work with. They have a huge range of publishers that they work with and they provide a very professional level of personal service that you don’t usually find in the SEO services space.

Been working with them for several years and will continue to do so!

Luke and the team at Magfellow have done a great job finding placement for our overflow work. They are very quick to respond and truly care about the service they provide.

If you want to be mentioned in mainstream publications, then you’d be crazy not to work with Magfellow.

Our team loves working with Magfellow. They are one of our favorite partnerships - fast, reliable, and great links.

I’ve been using Magfellow link-building services for the past six months, and I must say that they have exceeded my expectations.

Harrison RobertsonRaveCapture review, 2023

It was great working with Magfellow. They delivered more than they promised, so would surely like to work with them once again.

Brilliant company, no messing about and deliver exactly what they promise to deliver. Highly recommended!

FAQ

CBD link building FAQs

See our answers to the basic questions about CBD and cannabis link building. Chat with us if you have others.

Does CBD link building cost more?

Yes. The legality of cannabis varies from country to country, so site owners are more selective about the links they allow. It takes more time to find good sites that accept links to cannabis-related businesses, and the content must fit each site’s guidelines. That adds to the cost.

Is the standard comparable to regular link building?

Yes. The process is the same: we find relevant, high-quality sites, and you approve each one before we place a link.

How long will placements last?

Every placement comes with a 365-day guarantee. If your post or link is removed during that time, we follow up with the publisher to try to restore it. If we can’t, we offer a replacement or a refund for that placement.

Will a placement be marked as sponsored?

Sometimes. It depends on the publisher and the country: some label paid content, and in some markets the law requires it. If a placement will carry a label, we tell you before you approve the site, and you decide whether to go ahead.

Is paying for links against Google’s rules?

Google’s spam policies (updated August 2026) say buying or selling links for ranking purposes is link spam, and that paid links are acceptable when they are marked rel="sponsored" or rel="nofollow". That’s why we tell you, before you approve a site, whether a placement will be labeled. We can’t promise how Google treats any single link. Our guides to buying backlinks and link rel attributes explain more.

Are the links dofollow?

It depends on the publisher. Many placements are normal followed links, but some publishers mark paid links as sponsored or nofollow, and in some countries the law requires it. We check the link attribute before we place your link, and we tell you before you approve the site if it will be marked.

How do you handle reporting?

Your dedicated account manager shares a Google Sheet with you and updates it with active links and their status daily. When the order is complete, we send an Excel file for you to verify. We can adapt to other reporting systems if you have specific requirements.

How long until my links go live?

Links usually go live within 24–72 hours after you approve the content.

Do links still matter for AI search?

Yes, but they are not the whole picture. Studies show that AI tools often cite pages that do not rank in Google’s top 10, and that how often a brand is mentioned across the web goes hand in hand with how visible it is in AI answers. Google says no special optimization is needed for its AI features. So we build links that help your pages rank, and placements that put your brand on relevant sites. We cannot promise rankings or AI mentions. The evidence, with sources, is in our guide to the future of link building.
