I don't have any idea about the effect of Flash using sites in SEO field.
So, please explain the strategy of Flash in seo.

bizwiz · 10-31-2007, 10:56 AM

I think flash heavy sites is not good in terms of SEO so it must be avoided I believe.

AHA7 · 11-01-2007, 07:54 AM

Search engines can't read the content in the flash objects and so if your site is 100% flash then it's worth nothing to search engines. If you had a flash site you should always make a non-flash version of it.

I believe that flash willbe indexed soon by SE since it thake a hugh marketplace on the net.

i think the only thing that flash offers is a better appearance to your site. that's the only advantage.Nothing more in my opinion

I believe that as well and it will probably be soon!! ;)

They still need to have Everyone on High Speed Internet to be 100& successful in the flash market though!

D3niss3 · 11-06-2007, 03:29 PM

Yeah, search engines hardly crawls on images so heavy flash sites doenst rank well.

puffin · 11-20-2007, 07:06 AM

Full flash sites are a huge pain in SEO point of view. You can use only meta tags for seo process which doesn't do much good.

weblaunchphxx · 11-21-2007, 12:58 AM

Can you tell me some optimization steps for flash using sites.

domainer50 · 11-21-2007, 03:58 PM

It depends. If your site is 100% flash your going to have a hard time, but an HTML site with some flash wont hurt.

rashas8 · 11-23-2007, 05:17 AM

I agree with puffin :)

Try not to use fully flash sites. Make it combined with Html and images so you can use text too. only thing you have for seo in full flash sites are meta Tags and Title tag so use them wisely if its the case.

weblaunchphxx · 11-24-2007, 12:48 AM

Thanks! puffin
But i want to know your views about puting text in flash file.

Optimizing Flash sites to run efficiently is 93% perspiration, 6% electricity, 4% evaporation, and 2% butterscotch ripple. Despite many coders??? frustrations over the performance of the player, there are ways you can make your site run more efficiently.

Flash is only use to enhance the design of a website. I don't see any relation to it in the field of SEO...just my opinion

Have you ever seen a full flash site ? where everything happens inside a SWF file ?

becks_dn · 12-31-2007, 09:22 AM

flash very bad for seo don't use full flash site

ashish2005 · 01-03-2008, 06:43 PM

I do not think flash is understood by

. It's flash and

understands only text. So for seo flash is not at all good. You can have flash in your site but your site should not be made entirely of flash.

mik00tiz · 01-13-2008, 01:30 PM

In my opinion, flash can give better appearance. That's all.
