It is not worth the time to read their submission rules and appropriate category to submit your list to.
Even if you go through the pain and finally submit it, the chances of someone looking at is remote. Some volunteers don't look at your submission intentionally and some don't becuase of lack of time. If you again attempt to add your site, almost all volumteers consider it spam and you get banned.

The best course for you to do is
1) Add more content and get those pages designed well.
2) Find out list of heavily used keywords in your area and use them to write content. One possible source is to use overture tool.
3) Get few quality IBL's from related websites.
4) Within a year, you will see more hits to your website from organic search.

By following this approach, i stopped paying for Adwords and getting daily 100-200 unique visitors from (google, yahoo, msn). Over next few months i am sure i will get better results.
