    There is no alt attribute for Flash. However there is a better more effective option. You can use the SWFObject method of flash embedding and insert a text based transcript of your flash file in to the code. The spiders read this as plain copy and it receives more value then any alt tag ever will.

    Yah! Flash site is called dynamic site. You need a great link building or off page optimization to rank your flash site.

    Using Flash has nothing to do with a site being dynamic. These are two separate issues. You can have a Flash site be dynamic or static.

    as images are not crawl able by spiders on flash website.
    don't make your website full flash, use text and swf in flash.
    Link should be In HTML to index your website quick and faster.
