Internet search engines do not read flash content

6 New Member
I've read that search engines do not read flash content, and meta tags are not supported by many of the main search engines anymore.
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to work around it, so my all flash website can be seen with search engines like google or yahoo?

Hi ernesto!
What you say is true, and there is a way to overcome that problem.
Using the SWFObject script (http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/). You need to write the contents in regular HTML inside a div, which the script will replace with the actual movie, but since search engine robots doesn't parse javascript, they will se the regular HTML contents and use them to index your site, but the user won't see those contents, just the flash movie.

Read the documentation, it's really easy to use, and a great script.

Best regards,
The_Nephilim

I have designed a site for a client, but they have hired an internet marketing person to incrase their search engine ranking and traffic. He wants to put extra-large fonts on every page which will make the design looks a bit rediculous. He also said that the big text cannot be hidden. I am just trying to find a compromise. Here are the questions: (1) Is it true that a page with an <H1> tag and very big font size will make a search...

Can inference search-engines narrow-down the number of often irrelevant results, by using specific keywords; for the purpose of discerning emerging social & business trends? For example, if authors of content subconsciously mention the keywords "lately and noticed" within the same brief sentence, the reader may infer "an unintended message" through the process of "inferential scanning;" a method of noting "semantic anomalies" which may...

He or she can then switch to another language and set this as the preferred language, but again he or she sees content in only this one other language. The question now is: How do I get search...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
