So here we have it the guys at Adobe have got together with Google and Yahoo and have developed ways to fully index Flash content without requiring any extra effort from a website owner.
Previously, search engines indexed the “static” text and links on a site, falling far short of capturing all the content.
Basically the web crawlers will trawl through all of a Flash website’s possible “states,” and make that content available through their search results.
This is a significant announcement for businesses that have considered building Flash websites, but didn’t want to sacrifice their search rankings which will remove one of Flash’s big drawbacks.
