How can I make my flash website more search engine friendly?

akashingenious · 14th Oct 2013, 11:32 PM

I've got a website where practically all the content is in a flash film. Exists anything I can do to enhance my online search engine ranking or make my material more indexable?

Add text and images to your site. Search engine robots cannot read flash content (except text) so, you should give them content that they can read and understand and index your site better. Also, use interlinking, link to other pages on your site within your pages. Use title and alt tags for your images, use meaningful image names.

The only real way to make a Flash site 'search engine friendly' is to embed the flash into an html page. Then, ideally, you would also automatically recognize that a visitor doesn't have flash installed and serve them a static image in place of the flash content.

You'll need an html page with the flash embedded--and then you'll need to add real content (text) to that html page.

akashingenious, I highly suggest you get a mobile optimized version for you site. Google rewards businesses who have mobile optimized site. Try searching several keywords about local businesses and you know what I mean. I suggest you do the same. Thanks!

Have you got like header text? so your site knows what it is indexing? and can index it under the right keywords? or as someone already said try adding more text maybe a description?
