    It depends on so many factors..

    1. How optimised is your Google listing?
    2. How many positive reviews you have?
    3. Your competitor listing and how many reviews they have
    4. How many citations you have online?

    Some resources you can check for reference..

    But what are reasons our keywords are not shown in SERP's . Is it because of spamming or something else..

    I need to know your website url and Google places listing to give you the real picture.

    Blackhat link building methods are looked down by Google as algorithm manipulation and might lead to completing banning your website.

    Plumber Staten Island (Listing A) For islandsewers.com on google.com
    Plumber in Staten Island
    Staten Island Plumbing
    Plumbers in Staten island

    These are the keywords which is no where in organic results now but your can see them listing in Google Map. Please give me the reason why this thing happened.

    My goodness, if I were you, I would be leaping with joy! You're ranking number one on Google Maps/Places, that's really great. Think for yourself, if you were Google, why would you show the same website twice in both Google Maps and organic search results. I mean, this happens, but that's probably something Google doesn't want - duplicates in the search results.
    Anyway, why obsess about search engine rank tracking? Did your traffic go up or go down? That's the main think you should be concerned about.

    Another big comparison is , if you search keyword : rhinoplasty nyc for drjenniferlevine.com on google.com you will see they are listing on both results organic and local listing also. can some one tell me the reason why my results are-not showing in organically based upon this example.
