Flash Development
Can a Flash based site be search friendly?
The short answer is yes but. . . In order to have top rank and a Flash based website you need both an HTML and a Flash site. How is this possible? Well it all comes down to basic animal care. Huh? Search engines use web crawlers called spiders and they eat content (HTML) flavored with relative topics on what your customers are really searching for. So with a little bit of ingenuity we can feed the spiders what they want and your customers rich, dynamic Flash content. The technique is called (HUF) an acronym for HTML UNDER FLASH. The spiders see the HTML under the Flash while you interact with a dynamic flash website. The more people who interact with the content the better the site statistics and page rank. By now you’re wondering why go through all that trouble? The Flash player is installed in 99% of all computers and it displays all Flash content identically and exactly how it was authored in every browser. The dynamic abilities of Flash are almost limitless. HTML on the other hand is displayed inconsistently in every browser and any user can modify and steal your HTML at will. JavaScript used to make HTML dynamic is also rendered inconsistently across browsers and thus is limited on what it can do. With Image Advantage you can feed spiders and customers what they want.
