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

Creating Local Listings for Small Business Clients - Verifying if phone call is only verification option? Are directory submission services worth it?
I'm relatively new to local SEO --- I do a lot of local websites for small businesses (restaurants, bars, hotels, attorneys, dentists) in my area and thought it would make sense to include basic local SEO work with my websites. I have a couple of questions about adding my client's businesses to local business directories... I've started by adding each business to Google, Bing, and Yahoo business listings. I verified these listings with the postcard option which my clients then email to me. I've started adding them to additional directories but have found that many local directories require a phone call to the business to verify it (no other options). How do most SEO companies handle this? Do I ask them to forward their phone to mine for a night? Does it make sense to do local directory submission by hand? I created a spreadsheet for each company and keep track of each directory I submit to (the directory name, verification status, and username & password). I looked at services like Yext but doubt they are as thorough as doing it by hand? Any other advice on local business directory submission would greatly be appreciated. Thanks.

Worth paying for directory listings?
I'm going through the recommended SEO directory list but I notice that most of them are paid listings. I have been told that it is not worth spending any money on this, so why are there so many recommended in this list?

Yahoo Directory inclusion of Spanish Websites
Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone of you know if the Yahoo Directory accepts Spanish websites. My website has its 100% market in Mexico, so i havent seen the need to put an english version of the site. I dont know if i can accomodate my site under regional or something in order to avoid translating the ecommerce site. Or i must put an english version of the site. I would deeply thank your comments. Thanks,

Directories and Bookmarking
Our company has a wide range of linking strategies. Currently, our SEO team members are linking to directories more than anything else. Are there any advantage to this or should they put there effort elsewhere? My views on directories: these links are easy to acquire and offer little push to our SEO efforts. It appears that Google is no longer taking directories in consideration and essentially they could be hurting our rankings. What should our company do; should we stop linking to directories all together or keep it to a minimum. Also isn't bookmarking on the same lines as directories? What is the best way to handle this?

What does it mean to ping you web 2.0 backlinks?
We know that a major backlinking strategy is to create web 2.0 articles linking to your main money site. But these web 2.0 articles also need to be recognized by google, so people tell me I need to ping them? What does that mean?

I don't know if i should post my articles to other forums or sharing sites to create back links?
All the articles on my blog are written on my own. I write about 5 ones per month. I don't know if i should post my articles to other forums or sharing sites to create back links? I have heard that it may cause adverse effect because my blog will be crawled more slowly than those forums, so Google will consider the articles on my blog (as) copies. Is that right?
