Google places took over Organic Results

Hello,

I own $50 Auto Locksmith in Atlanta | Call Us 24/7 1-855-321-(OPEN). I have been seo'ing the site for 3 months now and made it to the #2 position for "Atlanta car locksmith". Recently my Google Places page has been pushed to the first position and my home page is nowhere to be found in the organic results. When I first started seo'ing the site Google was not even pulling Google Places for those keywords. My blog pages are still indexed, but even when I run seo centro I get a NA for the page result in Google. The only thing I did that was remotely incorrect while I was seo'ing the site was purchasing some Google plus 1 ups. However I don't think that made me lose my organic results, because I was still indexed for a good 2 months afterwards.

All I'm asking is if Google was punishing my site for some reason, then wouldn't they take down my Google places page too. Why have my organic results disappeared if my website has not been blacklisted.

      well that's odd that we are both in the same industry and are receiving similar results. I have gone through a couple of changes since this post. My Organic results have come back up, but my Google Local page was deleted for a couple of weeks and now it is back online. The only problem is I have to wait to confirm my address again. I think Google might be just messing with the locksmith industry a little bit, to get rid of the Janky Locksmith out there. I know there is allot. Maybe its a good thing if you are a trustworthy locksmith and have nothing to hide.
