    Hi Guys

    Can anybody tell me if using Macromedia Flash can hurt your rankings in Google or any other search engine.


    Thanks in advance for your expert advice :eek:

    No, I don't think so - but doing the whole site as a flash file doesn't really seem like a good idea though as the SEs have trouble reading them - even after all these years!

    if you mention using flash banners, it will not hurt your site but if you want to make a web site with full of flash, you may get problems

    If it's the main content of your site and there is no text content it might hurt your site other wise it's okay and won't hurt at all.
