There has always been a controvesy around the sites that are designed with Flash and their indexation in Google. There are many opened questions like: Will my content be fully indexed? What choices do I have to make it fully indexed?, etc.
As many of us know by now, Google is the major Search Engine that exists. Reason why we all want to be there. And of course, we all want to be indexed, so we don’t lose a possible customer.
Google tells us that Flash is a visual device. And the Googlebots have no eyes. It’s true that the Googlebots can read the content in Flash, and even extract the content and links from Flash. The structure itself is lost. If the content, on the other hand, is in the graphic object, then since the Googlebots cannot “see”, this content will be lost.
Google presents the next steps to solve this problem:
Use flash only when needed. Use Flash as a complement, not as everything in your site.
Do 2 menus, one in Flash and the other in HTML. So any user can log into the web page without been forced to download Flash.
Non Flash version of the site. Let the user choose what he/she wants to see. Let the Googlebots get all the info.
