Here are some of the main general directory ones. There are tons of others, and depending on your category there might be some that are more specific to your type of category:

http://www.zeal.com/

There's lots of web directories on the Internet, but I find trying to get listed in some off them for FREE is nearly impossible.

I have tried the Dmoz directory twice now, and I still have had no success.

Dmoz is really tough to get it, and the quality of websites in it vary so that suggests its also a game of luck. However, to make things easier make sure that a category already has an editor which is likely to speed things up a little. If it has no editor, then consider applying to be one, but come up with some good unbiased recommendations for websites you want to add.

BWM might be able to inform you more on this though, seeing as he's a dmoz editor already...

To get listed in DMOZ you really should make sure you submit to the most appropriate category for your website. Do not submit to multiple categories because when people start deleting your submissions it goes on your record for your domain and other editors can see you were pretty much spamming the dmoz directory. What I suggest is to go through many directories on Dmoz and find the one that is most appropriate to your site. Now before you submit to that category you also should make sure your site is ready to be submitted. Your site should be full of useful unique content that makes your site worth being listed. If the majority of your content is ads or links through affiliate programs, I gurantee you will not be listed.

I looked up records with your site in DMOZ and so far it looks like one of your submissions was deleted on 09/03/2003 because you made two submissions. The other submission was moved to another category on 03/19/2003 because the editor didn't feel you had submitted to the most appropriate category. Your site is still unreviewed in the new category that they moved you to. I would just be patient and make sure you make your site really great and useful. That way when an editor finally reviews your site they will want to add it.
