A lot more can be done with flash these days as well and you can link to sections within your main flash file or so I believe.

I always go back to one of my favourite sites from a few years back and I still love it ...

www.lookandfeel.com

select the old site on the left

Its one of the few flash websites that I can actually go back to again and again ... not sure when I first saw it .. maybe 2002 ? and its still as good now as it was then for me ... very simple ... catchy music ... nice clean interface ...

again not idea for SEO .. but I don't think they really have to worry about SEO maybe about accessibility though

Edit: damnit ... I posted ... I was on 6 6 6 posts *sighs*

Not if they degrade properly. As soon as Google stop being lazy and sort out their SWFObject issues, then Flash menus may well be back in vogue.

True that is why i said generally. Most people just throw a swf file up and wonder why only their home page gets indexed

Wonder how long it will take google to do that.....

Is there a way to help that by lets say give xml site maps or even using xml files to display content with in flash

Technically you could setup the sitemap

.htaccess should allow you to give individual urls to your pages...

flash should be smart enough to know the url its on and serve up the correct location

given you know the location you could pull the "dynamic" content and update the page title / content assuming simple enough content could go into the flash alternative description ?

and ... away you go ?

You could put the content into a <noscript> element .. assuming that you serve up your flash using one of the javascript workarounds for page validation.

No Javascript = No Flash ... = they get the noscript message ...

Google should technically be happy and able to index the noscript text ...

is it worth doing this ... up to oyou ? ...
