Infobel is a Brussels, Belgium-based online international telephone directory. Launched in 1995 by Kapitol SA, Infobel was the first online telephone directory.
Infobel allows users to search telephone directories for businesses and people in countries across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and the Pacific, and the Middle East. It also features business listings by category for multiple European countries. The site is available in 17 languages: Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Danish, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish, Turkish, Bulgarian, Romanian, Hungarian, Russian, Finnish, Swedish and Norwegian.
Much of Infobel’s revenue comes from businesses and websites that use the company’s databases to improve their own services. These computers include GPS device manufacturers such as Garmin and Mio Technology; Bing; Yahoo!; Google Maps; Yelp; and the BlackBerry app Poynt.
