Doubt it's a risk, but probably a waste of time/money. I'd start of with directories whose links show up for their listed sites, and work from there...

There are uncounted directories that will list your site for free.
They are no more worthless than the ones which charge you.
The only time I consult a directory is to see if my site is listed. -Larry

Once you get familiar with the widget sites out there, you will know all widget directories, free or not free ones. Do linkdomain searches on your main competitors and see which non-free directories get ranked highly; they will be worth some money for your specific topic. Good luck! W.

I think unless a directory has a strong niche/authority (like a directory of say cement dealers) or a large amount of traffic, it likely won't do you much good (in Google).

Strong niche-related links with real traffic that have been online for over 5 years, give you a direct link, and if possible a page listing your business. Almost always worth submitting to.
