      My website was ranked on top of all keywords on Google Local results but in january 2013 it has droped to 2nd page on all keywords. After my checking i had found keyword staffing on place page which i have removed two months back. During last two months site was on 2nd page but now it is dropping more. Website is listed on all major local directories. What is the best way to handle such website case for local seo to get back rankings ??? what should be our new plan or strategy ??? I will be very thankful to all of you for best suggestion.

        First of all, very sorry to hear about your drop in rankings, MNK.  I'm sure that's been pretty stressful.  It's difficult to say what's going on without getting a few more details, so could you provide a few please, such as a link to your Google+ Local page and what keywords you have dropped in rankings for?
