How are Links Detected by Search Engines?

    Hi,

    I know that if I create a web page only using the Flash tech. then my page is without any link for spiders.

    But what about blank links?
    Are the links in the text (those without the href tag) counted by SE?

    And, what happens if I set the color of the text-link as the same of the background?

    Thanks for any advice.

    :confused:

    Not necessarily. The big problem is you are wothout text to index - there are workarounds for that.

    Counted for what? :confused: If they don't go off the page. they aren't going to be doing anyone any good from an SEO standpoint.

    If/when it's detected, you'll be penalized.

    Hence, to add a second page just in HTML is the only best alternative?

    To do what? I'm having trouble understanding your question or what it is you are trying to accomplish.

    There's a link without href tag ?? What type of link is that ??

    Same color, that's hidden, just create one menu in your Flash movie that when user clicks, redirect them to one html page on the same directory, with links to your partners on them, simple

    Just a suggestion.

    Have at least a regular html sitemap. From your home page, you link to your sitemap.html (as well as linking to a sitemap.xml too) and the sitemap contains most (if not all) of your sites major links and unlinkables.
