Searchable Flash
Category : Uncategorized
Typical of SEO and the web is how fast things move on.
After my writing about Flash not being search engine friendly it seems that Adobe, Google, and Yahoo teamed up last week to announce that they are making Flash searchable for crawling and indexing.
Good news of course but designers should still proceed with caution. How Flash gets indexed will be an interesting question and what weight a Flash page will carry against an html page in the search engine rankings is sure to be an issue.
Of course there are still accessability/browser/plugin issues with Flash but it’s a move in the right direction.
