WEBCEO built in directories for submission
http://www.directory-pages.com (great resource with great list - many on this page below)
bestoftheweb.com (Approximately $40/yr and $40/mo for premium placement in top categories - resellers get 25%)
* I added up approximate pricing for a listing in all tier sites below - came up to about $1,200 (choosing sponsored links) - many are 1 year only (annual renewals came up to about $550/yr).. so would need charge $1,200 for the first year and $550/yr to maintain each additional year. 81 Directories (some are very specific and I assume will be good to get listed in half the list).
