From the very beginning, we would like to show a real case study about how we performed a step-by-step plan to double "cbd oil" CTR rate from 2.5% to 5%, as long as daily clicks varied from 3,5K to 8.3K - just by simply optimizing our Google Snippet

1. Use Short but CTA keywords in your CBD meta tags

There's no point to write long meta title tags in 2020. Optimal title size is 40-55 symbols

For example: Best CBD Oils for Anxiety in 2020 - Depression Alliance - where "Best" is CTA word.

More CTA words:

  • Best
  • for sale
  • affordable
  • cheapest
  • 2020
  • discount
  • 100% Natural

2. Use | as a separator in your CBD meta title tag

If you're using Google Adwords, you might see that the only way you can separate your Title sections by using |. This tactic is good enough for SEO. As long as TOP 1 "CBD OIL" page is using this tactic.

3. Use emoji's in your meta description (Oil, hemp, and others)

2020 is the year of messengers and graphic info. You should somehow "highlight" your snippet and the best way is by using an emoji. You can use up to 3 emoji's in your CBD Description meta tag.

5. Add Q\A markup to be shown in search results

It's one of the latest search features rolled out in May, 2020. Actually, maybe that's the reason that droppage was almost 70% for CBD Websites in 2020. Use this markup as much as you can - blog pages, product pages.
