Google SEO for flash websites
I have heard google can read the contents of a flash file ... i found this a very interesting topic ... would anyone care to tell me how you define headers and titles etc. within the flash file? i.e. set importance to it ... is it possible?

Ff you publish your flash site from flash, it can put the contents of the file into a formatted HTML comment for you. It's possible that Google parses that. I doubt they'd take the time to create a SWF decompiler, though I may be wrong. :shrug:

It can never read a flash site unless the flash is properly optimized...

it's true, google can index .swf's nowadays.

Type into goodle .swf and sixth down should be a .swf file listed with a description using the swf's contents.

Not sure what google do to read these, but it is possible!

If you want search engine results for Full flash sites, your flash content better spank the pants off your competition to gain backlinks. A serious SEO wouldn't touch Flash with a barge pole.

Actually I have read several articles about it... If you are an SEO you know what I mean... Flash can optimized in SEO perspective, FYI.

I have seen many flash sites that rank well on SEs.. So what do you think they do to that? of course they SEO it...
