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

Do You Risk A Penalty From Local Paid Directories in 2022?
Hi there, I have a client who wants to advertise in a local directory along the lines of "find your nearest plumber". The directory only has paid listings and they are follow links and they also mention your site or generated landing page may get a nice bump on google. Is there a risk that they may get a penalty for using this directory? The client wants to use it regardless of if it gives them an SEO boost but obviously wants to avoid any penalties at all costs. Thoughts on this? Thanks in advance

NoFollow & Directory Scraper Backlinks
I was wondering how important it was to remove/disavow: NoFollow backlinks - many ("buy viagra" etc). Directory backlinks - many questionable/generic directories. Obviously the focus is the equity passing links but both of the above constitute a significant proportion of backlinks to the site - I've seen that "scrapers" are seen as natural and obviously NoFollow do not pass link juice - but does the sheer number have a bearing and therefore make them equally important to address? Thanks in advance for your responses. Regards

Should I abandon directories?
To say I'm new to SEO would be an understatement. I am heading up marketing for a firm and they have zero web presence. I've used Alexa.com to check out our competition and one site in particular has about 150 sites linking to it. I dove in deeper and created a spreadsheet. The majority of these links are sketchy, paid directory listings (or what look sketchy to me). The confusing part is, they rank first on Google when I search for industry keywords. Is it because of these directories? Should I follow them or avoid them completely? I'm planning on creating content and pushing that out to reputable industry sites. I figured getting links/mentions from these would help SEO. Should I only target these high value sites or would submitting articles to the directories with "article" sections offer any assistance? It seems as though my SEO knowledge is limited to less-than admirable tactics, although not by choice. I am planning to dive into paid search in the coming weeks but wanted to know of any "ground work" I could do aside from pushing content and paid search. It seems like there are 1,000's of these paid directory sites and I find it hard to believe they will offer me a benefit...it's just the competition is on them and something is working. Sorry this is so remedial, but I need to figure out where to go!

Has anyone seen positive results from using Submiteaze to submit to directories? I know an SEM agency that uses it for clients' link building campaigns, but I don't know if it is worth buying. Are there better alternatives?
I would like to start a link building initiative at my company for a new website, and would like to know if the value of the links built using Submiteaze would be worth the money.

How do I know if an inbound link offers value?
Is there a way to find out if inbound links that have been pointing to my site for a year or more are still offering value to my site. I know the value decreases over time (especially press release and blog article links), but it would be nice to know how much value bring to a site.
