Here are a few of the Austrian ones. I will only include directories that do not specifically exclude foreign language sites. You will have to do the submission in German though! I will only include the freebies.

http://www.austria-seek.at/cgi-bin/search/add_url.cgi

http://funktionen.abacho.at/seite_an...basic_eintrag/

http://www.mair.net/anmeldung.htm

http://bellnet.de/suchen/anmelden-ko...ndardanmeldung

http://www.flix.de/cgi-bin/flix/gene...to_Neueintrag?

http://www.suchknecht.at/anmelden.html

These are all free and require no registration. I have checked the pages and they work, so the only excuse is the language! If anyone gets stuck, then I will give them a hand.

African directories. These are free, but may require to see a connection with Africa for the products you offer. Ananzi is South African and refused my site as not relevant.

Got to get some work done inbetween!

[sfowler]

I agree, it was a great idea to start this. Here are some more. I have tried them all, but not submitted anything. The links work anyway.
http://www.aardvarkbusiness.net/cgi-bin/biz/add_url.cgi
General, mostly Africa

http://www.fishhoo.com/cgi-bin/links/add.cgi
fishing

http://www.waheguroo.com/
Sikh directory

http://www.finderseeker.com/
Directory list by category and country

http://www.sfahq.com/International/
Special forces directory

when I first started my site I posted to a lot of directories simply by typing search engine;country and working my way through the atlas.

[greeneagle]

Thanks sfowler,

You may want to remove the first 2:

http://www.aardvarkbusiness.net/cgi-bin/biz/add_url.cgi

http://www.fishhoo.com/cgi-bin/links/add.cgi

they are PR0s, the others look fine!

Thanks again,
Ken

[Andilinks]

I just updated and checked my list of Directories, no I won't post 535 links to this page, though I could. They are here:

This page also links to another expanded list with descriptions.

Hey just so everyone knows we just completed a project, PAontheweb.com (http://www.PAontheweb.com) for a client who wants to list all the websites in Pennsylvania, USA. If you have a website in PA feel free to list it as well as use it! I would appreciate any feedback on what you think of the site, after all it did and still does take ALOT of time to upkeep.

This site allows you to search good directories and it tells you how much it costs to place ads in them

German language, but foolproof. Only allows 5 URLs within 5 minutes, so go for a smoke!

Most of the German medical directories use ODP it seems. If you have a German language site it is not very difficult to get an ODP listing. My ex-wife works for a medical publisher, so I will ask her tomorrow.

How about somebody starts researching the Spanish directories, all those South American countries.... I will have a go at the French ones.
