Hello Warriors,

Just wondering if using flash in your website or blog affects your ranking in the SERPs. Here's my website http://www.rbmphotography.ca.

Thanks.

Google can't read all that flash you have on your site.

If you swapped the flash for html you would have more content for G to parse.

I believe G can now read text in .swf files.

Thanks

The idea of G reading flash has been a while now but Matt Cutts specifically said, G will still read plain HTML better than non-flash / non-javascript.
