    First of all why you would like to get removed from there :confused:

    Anyway you can send them request through their contact page e.g.

    http://www.worldwidirectory.com/Contact/ Same with other directories also.

    In most scripts, unless you have a username & password the only way to do it is by contacting the webmaster.

    If you can't find a contact page trying doing a whois check on the domain and see if you can find the email over there.

    Depending on the individual directory and their policy, it might be possible to have the listing removed.

    I'd contact the editor/owner via a contact form or email with your cordial request.

    I'd like to think that most directory owners would be accommodating. Best of luck.

    Best way is to contact the owner of the directories. They would not have any problem.

    Did you actually add the site to these directories? I don't see the point in why you would want them removed see as it is just waste your and the directories time by listing sites and then wanting them removed soon after words.

    Other than saying this, you should contact them if you want your sites removed.

    most of websites use info[at] on their prefix. you can try contacting them this way if you cant find contact info in their site.

    I don't have an info @ account... i'd say admin @ would be more suitable. You could just do a whois of their domain which should reveal an email account if a contact page is not accessible...

    ...either way, whats the point?

    You might need to double what you paid to get listed. Just kidding

    If you are doing it because you are afraid of getting banned or penalized in Google, it won't happen. Google has stated that, a one way backlink can't hurt you. Unless it is obvious that you paid for it, but even that is up to debate.

    i dont understand why you want the links removed coz i dont think they can harm you in any way .. or it would be posible to attack your competitors by submitting their sites to some directories? doesnt make sense for me
