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.

Simon

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.

http://www.afriqueindex.com/Categori...-africains.htm
http://es.biz-directory.org/dir/1/11.php
http://www.clickafrique.com/admin/addlinks.asp
http://search2.ananzi.co.za/Add_site/
http://www.skaffe.com/viewCat/1522
http://www.woyaaonline.com/

Got to get some work done inbetween!

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.

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

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:

http://www.andilinks.com/sea5.htm

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.

http://www.ake-nutrition.at/index.php
Austrian, nutrition
http://www.medlink.at/neuerlink.html
Austrian, general medical
http://locual.com/
Spanish, general
http://www.neurologienetz.de/
Neurology, German
http://beetoo.de/add.php?catid=282
German, general
http://www.wuup.de/cgi-bin/search/search.pl
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.
