2011 – An Amazing Year

December 21st, 2011 by Mark Britton, CEO

As we close the books on 2011, it’s worth taking a look back at this amazing year.

For starters, Avvo underwent some cool changes this year.  Our medical offerings really gained prominence, with tens of thousands of doctors signing up and dozens of large hospitals and clinics partnering with us.  We were asked to speak at multiple medical conferences and inked many deals to power “Top Doctor” lists based on the Avvo Rating.  Pretty cool.

We also focused our product much more on Q&A this year.  Even though Q&A is all the social media rage right now, we have been at it since 2007 and this year our Q&A forums reached 800-pound gorilla status by answering hundreds of thousands of questions for people navigating their legal and health issues.

We also launched two new blogs, Lawyernomics and Mamanomics, both intended to give some of our biggest power-users even more tools to help in their businesses and at home.

The beauty of all of this “new” stuff is that it builds upon and enhances those things that have historically made Avvo great.  The Avvo Rating; our industry-leading professional directories; Avvocating; our legal marketing webinar series; our thoughtful contributors and supporters LIKE YOU. All boats rise as Avvo learns from helping more consumers and professionals meet, communicate and work together.

So thank you everyone for helping make 2011 a great year.  Whether you advertise, answer questions, post guides, vote and comment on content, or simply have a robust Avvo profile, thank you for everything you do.  We are honored to help power your practice.  We are honored to partner with you.

May our partnership continue to prosper in 2012 and beyond.

Happy Holidays!

Mark
