Hi there
I see - well, since it appears Whitespark won't work (they don't do listings in your area anyway), what you can do is take a look at competitors and see what kind of listings and partnerships they are taking advantage of. This can be particularly helpful if you have a means of acquiring partnerships internationally.
Since you are trying to perform on the global stage, take a look at the following:
International SEO
The International SEO ChecklistI would see if there are different content opportunities that you can offer different websites that could benefit from the information on your website. Or, if you can get involved in different communities around the web that would utilize your information or your expertise.
Just a few more thoughts - hope this helps as well.

Thanks for your answer. But my site is not a local business. It is basically a collection of information that help people worldwide. I live in the Czech Republic, so I can not post to directories with local businesses.

Hi there
I agree with Lesley here - Whitespark is a great starting point as they have niche driven directories as well as local directories that you can take advantage of.
I would also take a look at Moz Local as you can manage citations and make sure all of your listings are consistent. They also have a great tool that allows you to check your listings.
The reason I am harping on your local SEO so much is because it's the most important "link building" you can do. Search engines use these listings to verify information about your business to make sure they are returning correct results - therefore, it's extremely important, because search engines need this information. I would take a look and make sure your citations are up to date and categorized properly.
Hope this helps a bit - let me know if you have anymore questions or comments - good luck!

I would not call them the best place to get links from, but they are safe generally. I would suggest using Whitepsark.ca to find some directory sites, they list way more than anyone can tell you about. Since you are a Moz member you get a discount too, https://moz.com/perks

I need help: Website has dropped and I dont know how to bring it back
Hi All, So my website has dropped now to page 12, I have no idea why, I've tried myself to bring it back and I have also tried a few £1000 at outsourcing the SEO which has had no affect. There are no penalties in webmaster tools but I personally think something the algo doesn't like is holding it back - I could be wrong. I think this because some of the results higher than me are a lot worse, hold little to no content and there backlink profiles have no links, some are even 1 page new domains that have been live for as little as a month ranking a lot higher than me. At one point I was ranking page1, position4 for the term 'bank holidays' and now I don't rank anywhere. What's weird is if you search 'bankholidays' as one word I appear in that position. Does anyone have any ideas what is going on? Problem page: followuk.co.uk/bank-holidays - GoogleUK search. I need some help please.

Yahoo directory inclusion
Does anyone know what the odds are of a website getting rejected from the yahoo directory. I don't want to pay $300 to have my site declined. They have very basic inclusion requirements but I'm not sure how selective they are with accepting websites. From personal experience does anyone have any idea of how hard/easy/likely you are to get listed if you pay the $300?

How important are directory submissions to my off-page SEO?
Hi Guys, One area of my link building that I carry out is looking for online directories and social bookmarking websites to submit my website to. I do this in order to gain some backlinks to my website. What I want to know is are they really worth my time, and if so, which types would you say are the most important? I have obviously been through many directory lists, both on SEOmoz and on other websites, and also performed various searches to find relevant directories to my website. I just feel that posting up a link that lies deep in a directory online that, more often than not, have very low PA and lots of outbound links will offer very little in terms of SEO. If anything, this could really bring down the quality of my links and be detrimental to my website, right? This is a subject that I have been thinking about for a while and especially with the recent algorithm update from Google and the attack on many web directories that are, lets say, 'not playing by the rules', I'm worried that this will have a negative impact for my website. Let me know your thoughts guys and if you have any tips on how to get higher quality links from these kind of submission then I'm all ears! Matt.

Link Directories - Good or bad?
I've just done a search on open site explorer for a competitors site that has is ranked number one. Most of their highest authority backlinks are from link directories. I just read an article on here saying to stay away from directories that state things like 'seo friendly directory'. Many of my competitors links are from these kind of sites! Will it harm me to get links from such sites? It seems to be working for my competitors.... confused.com!

Doing Local Directories for Online Stores?
I am working with some customers on SEO and wonder what to do about directories when they have an online store only. They do not want to list their home address (if they did would this be a good idea?). I know the big push now is for local directories so I'm wondering if anyone has tips for other types of directories to get into that aren't spammy. Or tips for doing SEO for sites that are online only? I know Rand talked a lot about the importance of being "real" with an about us page, contact us, etc. on his Future of Link Building Webinar and I'm wondering how to best make that work in this situation when they can't show themselves as real by being in local directories.
