    Flash is a threat in SEO perspective. Major search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing cannot read content within flash, it will only be seen as an "object". Most of websites with a full flash and no context have a poor ranking, unless you have a much stronger backlinks compared to common website like 200%.

    If you have to use flash, please use it as a part of website only. You should consider to put more textual beside the flash to help for index and ranking.

    not only is flash a headache when you're trying to do SEO (although FLASH IS NOW INDEXED BY GOOGLE) you have to remember that initial SEO is a trial and error process. If you want to spend time redoing your flash movies and all, then it's fine. most people, however do not have that luxury.
