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://mza.bundledseo.com/perks

Paid Directory Value
Hi All! Recently we scaled back the number of paid directories that we use for our clients, mainly due to them being devalued. To select which directories made the cut, we looked at things like Domain Authority, Page Rank, and Trust; all of the things you're supposed to be looking for in a quality link. We even used the list of directories here on SEOmoz as a reference. Two of the directories we use are Yahoo and BOTW, both of which seem to draw the ire of many professionals here. Is there something I'm missing? If these directories have solid numbers, why such backlash towards them? I appreciate any insight you can give me! Frank

Directory Submissions = Negative?
I see that a lot of SEO companies offer a large 5,000 directory submission package with slow, 160 day submissions. I don't mind spending the money to have this done, but my question is... would they help, or would they actually hurt my rankings? Since a lot of these directories are basically just copies of each other on different domains. As an added question, would it be worth submitting to all of the general directories on this list? http://www.seomoz.org/directories

Before submitting to a directory, what do you look for?
I'm going through one of my competitors links and of course I'm coming across some directories. Just wondering what you might look for in a quality directory. I'm looking at one right now called SoMuch.com and it appears to be a quality directory but then I look down at the footer and I see "Search Engine Friendly Free Link Directory". The domain authority is 80. Thanks

Is directory submission still a valid practice?
Hi Guys, I have few doubts running in my mind on directory submission, do you think it is still a valid practice in link building?. If your answer is "YES", then please correct me.. How submitting to directories is a natural link practice? According to Google, links should not be purchased, it should to be created naturally, but if you see, a lot of high authority directories charging amount from people to index links, why Google not stopping those directories (I mean penalizing) and stopping the people who are trying to get indexed by paying. According to me directories holds only bunch of links to some external domains (I hope I am not wrong), then how submitting to them can bring rankings to me?. Sorry, if I sound stupid in any of my points, but expecting some good answers from you folks.. 🙂

Can we submit our website irrelevant directories and resources?
Hey, Can you tell me if it is a good practice to submit our website to a "quality" but an irrelevant web directory? For example, i run article writing service, so it is good to submit my website to a directory that's not about article writing services? Thanks in advance! Mohd

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.
