How to do SEO for flash based site ??

Discussion in 'Search Engine Optimization' started by Chiranjit Paul, Dec 3, 2010.

    I recently heard that Google has started indexing flash sites since the last couple of months.

    But what about sites with full flash content?

    What if the site has little or no content other than the flash documents?

    What would be the best SEO method for it?

    Google has always indexed flash websites, but they've never been able to read the content properly, because obviously it's all in flash, which is useless. You can place content on your webpage which is hidden, using flash is stupid anyway, unless you have a non-flash copy of your website, then just redirect search engines to your non-flash site and use that for them.

    Flash and seo never go together, it's really that plain and simple.

    First you make your site Search Engine Friendly not for particular person. As other expert said that Google can't read flash content.

    Add HTML pages to it so there is actually SOME text on the domain. Interlink them with the flash elemetns and you'll have something like "optimization"...

    There's not much On-Page Optimization you can do for a flash site. Focus more on Off-Page Optimization.

    Building backlinks isn't going to optimize your on-page SEO.

    flash contents are not really recommended if you put them all over your site. Since there bad effects are this

    It can make the loading of your site very slow.
    Search Engines do not index flash objects.
    flash could be a mess if not handled properly.

    first of all make sure you use flash less.
    And if you use flash name the flash file with keywords , use captions and text around flash in keywords.
    Use appropriate title , description and keyword tags.
    and focus on off page SEO , build quality backlinks with keyword anchor text.

    It's true that the Google is considering to their site, which are make in fully flesh. That can not be promote. If you want to promote to that, you have need to insert compressed flesh and add some contents their.
