Hi Bilal,
Just to clarify, Google Places has been rolled into the new Google+ Local pages, and while there are some changes in statistics, they still exist. See:
http://support.google.com/plus/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2611197&topic=2566084&ctx=topic
I would wait 2 more weeks (6 weeks total) to see if the data begins showing up, and if you haven't seen it by then, I would alert Google to this via their Google And Your Business Help Forum, here:
http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/business
You will need to provide your complete business details when you do so, and hopefully, one of the Google Top Contributors or employees will be able to help you, if the stats haven't appeared by then.

At times Places can take up to 6 weeks to verify. Actually, the activity data on your Dashboard is more like 6+2 weeks. It can take up to 6 weeks for a newly verified Place Page to show up in search results and it can take another 2 weeks for it to collect enough search activity to display the graphs.
I have never had to wait that long, but it can happen. Also, if you created the profile prior to the migration to Google + Local, i had clients losing partial or complete profiles. Not Fun.
If you provide more info of business and location, we can help you better.

Can you provide a screen shot?
Google places is / has migrated to google+ profile local - I'm sure google places still works as I set one up a week ago. Maybe it's rolled out later here?

Viral SlideShare = Google Penalty?
We recently published a slideshow on SlideShare.net and it ended up doing pretty well. It was featured on their homepage for 3 days, and we got quite a few embeds. Unfortunately, a few days later, our rankings in Google tumbled. I'm wondering if this killed our link velocity, which I suppose would have potentially got us a temporary, automated penalty? If you look at slide #4 and beyond, you'll notice that the logo links back to our homepage, and there's also a "View Quote" button that navigates to that specific quote, so users can find out more information, share it, or view any associated pictures. So, in total, there are quite a few backlinks in that slideshow (88 to be exact). Is this what likely caused our drop in rankings? Or is it more likely to be a coincidence? We haven't done anything else in the past couple of months, other than publish an infographic and a press release. And if this is a problem, how would we fix it? I can edit the slideshare and remove some of the links... but it seems sort of silly considering we haven't done anything blackhat. And, it would actually devalue our slideshow, because users would no longer be able to click through to the quotes. Thoughts?

Reasons for store not showing up on Google?
Hi my client has a store which is not showing up on Google search results. E.g. if you looked up store name and store location on Google, all the stores in that particular city show up except one. Also even if you click the: More results near CITY, and State the stores listing still doesn't show up. So for some reason Google has excluded the store from Google search. But if you go to Google Maps directly, and type in the same keyword "STORE NAME CITY" the store is displayed and there. Does anyone know any reason why the store has been excluded from Google search results, but is listed successfully on Google Maps.

Timeline For Local Prospect
Hi Mozzers, I need a judgement. I've been approached by a deck building company whose business is local. They do have an existing web site, but almost no content or indexed content. Their visibility online is very close to zero. They are also a seasonal business, with people getting interested in decks from April through June by which time they would be expecting a result. There is one very large competitor and many smaller ones. This gives me 6 months, starting from very close to scratch. Would you take it on? Discussion and debate welcome.

Google+Local Reviews have gone? Any ideas?
Hi Since Google switched places to Google+ Local lots of the reviews that were on the listing are no longer showing? A customer of mine brought up the point when visiting the store today, when they are logged into Google they can see their review under Your Activity, however when they are logged out the only review is listed under 1 Review from everyone and the review is no longer being shown? Any ideas on what is going on? Also with local search / places optimisation has the best practice guidelines changed now that is transformed into Google+ Local? If so it would be great to share any links on getting the most out of this new + local service

Local query doesnt trigger local maps listings?
Hi guys, Ive been doing local seo for quite some time and had great results from both organic listings and local maps listings (and a merged listings). However ive noticed time and time again that local maps listings dont appear in serps on all local searches, even the most popular local search terms. Take the phrase "marketing company glasgow" local phrase,local intent but no maps results. But if you click on maps on the laft hand side, theres clearly tons of mpas results. Any ideas why google dont display local businesses on certain local intent phrases? Is there any way around this? Even with good on page seo, and good rankings organically, it would be great to get the maps listing on page 1 too. Thanks Robert

The profile in Google Places is in english, but i searched it from google.com.ar. Is it possible to have Google Places' profile in several languages? Thanks! Best wishes, Ariel

Why is here no extra section for Google Shopping
does really nobody care for the most important search result for shops beside organic result? google shoping results mostly pop up in organic results on 3rd place. Vertical SEO Video, Image, Local etc. etc. is not really Shopping Results!
