Avvo rating 6/10.0 which is "Good"

Claimed my lawyer profile on Avvo. They magically compute a rating out of 10 for every lawyer who claims. The rating is based on a host of factors including experience, industry recognition and professional conduct. With only 3 years of experience and no industry recognition, I think a 6/10 is a fair rating - that comes out as "Good" in their overall scheme rather than just "Average."

I think I can do a lot to increase my score when it comes to Industry Recognition. Avvo doesn't reveal how they compute their numbers, so I'm not sure how much I have to do in order to increase the score a bit. In spite of that, I'll set a personal goal of 6.8 by the end of the year (2010).
