How do I optimize Flash code for SEO?
Wednesday, December 13th, 2006There are two major ways to improve your flash code for SEO purposes:
- Add descriptive metadata to the Flash presentation.
Although metadata might not be as important as a couple of years ago, skipping it for Flash sites is not recommended.
- Provide alternative pages that describe the contents of the Flash presentation.
If your site uses more than just a flash advert, or rollover effect, you should consider using alternative html pages. This is not only because they are text that can be indexed by search engines, but also because there are users who might not be willing to see the Flash movie.
