      My Google Places listing is not showing as of Friday.  The business name is Emerald Coast Carpet Cleaning in Shalimar, Florida.  The area that I'am trying to show for is the Fort Walton/ Destin area.  All my competitors are still showing in Places but mine is not.  I am still seeing it on the map though.  I didn't change anything in the profile in the past 14 days.  Is there something that I can do to get my listing back in Places?

        Hi Revive Media!

        I ran a quick search and found you as letter G. 😃 Check out the screenshot I attached.

        Maybe you need to clear your browser cache? There's some room for improvement being letter G of course. Do you have any local directory listings established? Maybe a service like Moz local or Yext will help give you a push?

          Keep in mind that Google displays search results based on your search patterns. Try using https://duckduckgo.com and using the prefix !g before your search term to see unfiltered results ( !g Emerald Coast Carpet Cleaning ). This will search for your query on Google anonymously. Also, be sure to log out of your Google account(s) prior to using it.

            I don't want to say; "Pigeon" but it may have been. It came on a little strong and things still seem to be up in the air, in some places. No one has really had the time to fully study this, but Blumenthal's blog has some interesting early observations. So maybe it just popped back into place.

            I had some new, less than a month old, business listings drop out and come back in a slightly lower position where map packs are displayed.

            NAP problems appear to be the likely culprit. There appears to be some significant NAP inconsistencies, both on and off-site. If you haven't already, I recommend taking a look at Miriam Ellis's posts. They're all quite practical and will answer a lot of questions.

                  Thank you Bryan, I have ran my sites through Moz Local and have found a great improvement since then.
