    Google spiders crawls the flash site more easily now, it has improved the crawling of flash site, it crawls text in the flash file and image in the webpage.

    Sorry, Google don't like flash website.Flash website only get indexed by domain but not each element and pages.

    If you want to do SEO, give up using flash to create your website.

    Googlebot can index almost any text a user can see as they interact with any Flash SWF file. If you embed rich media content such as Flash, Silverlight, or videos on your site, it must be available in text format too for it to get indexed, or it won't be accessible to search engines.

    The best way to SEO a flash page is to pull the data displayed in the flash from a remote .xml file, the .xml file is plain text which Google can read all day long.

    I think, Google don't like flash website.
    Flash animation only best for User experience, user interface..

      That's why you pull the data from an .xml file.

      You can also rank flash jpg/bmp/png images as video thumbnail images like the way Youtube thumbnail images show up in Google SERPs, no video required.

      I know of a real estate website that was killing it in Google SERPs with flash/images (video thumbnails).
