if you have read the sticky in this forum you will see that this forum is not for SEO reviews. Anyway I will give my opinion which is: Probably your site is penalized.
Mod please move this thread to proper category. Apart from the wrong thread issue, I will give my personal review insight your situation Your site has not been penalized. Your site ranked in #1 for both domain name with and without extension. Your site is also ranked #1 for - almeria classifieds - allinanchor:almeria classifieds - "almeria classifieds" But your site do not ranked in the first page for allintitle:almeria classifieds. I think you should not worry too much. If you read through the forum you should aware of the recent Google dance and gives fluctuate in ranking for many sites recently. You should focus on build "quality link" from "quality site / directory" instead of crappy directory submission. Your link profile is important key role in a long run SEO.
you won't see your site in top 10 of google if your site is new. it is very very difficult to achieve top 10 ranking for the keyword. so work hard.
