    How? they will read only the html part of the flash websites. The contents of the websites which is being written in flash will remain non indexed by the Google.

    I am sorry , I do not think Google Spider can snatch at the Flash Files . Many people do not put the too flash files in their website , that is the reason for it.

    No Google cannot correctly read the content on flash pages, you want a static html or css file for them. Stay away from making flash sites, incorporate into your design or something if needed but build your content website with CSS or HTML. It indexes and is validated a lot better by search engines and browsers.

    Googlebot can index almost any text a user can see as they interact with any Flash SWF file on your site, and can use that text to generate a snippet or match query terms in Google searches. Additionally, Googlebot can also discover URLs in SWF files (for example, links to other pages on your site) and follow those lin

    Google can crawl the HTML image part. However it does not have the equal access as HTML text.

    Google can now index text content contained in Flash files, but other search engines may not.

    Google can’t read all types of JavaScript – So if your Flash file is invoked with JavaScript, it may not be read. Other search engines can’t read Flash at all and Google isn’t the only search engine out there. It may be the biggest, but the others are still important. Yahoo has the ability to read Flash, but at the time of writing, it appears they still don’t. None of the others do.

    Well, Google can crawl flash files to some extent... there was some new in the air back in 2008.

    but after that Google bothered to improve its flash crawling efficiency.
