Google Learns to Crawl Flash Pages
July 6th, 2008 | Author: Jim Hutchinson
Getting flash-based websites indexed by the search engines has always been a challenge. It meant making sure you added plain text to the page so the crawlers had something to read, while trying to incorporate the text so it blended in with the design.
That all changed recently when Google announced it now uses the Adobe Flash Player technology to read Flash. You are now free to design your websites in Flash and still get indexed in Google. This is a major jump in Search Engine Optimization strategies.
All those who have previously put off using Flash to build their websites now have the freedom to let their imaginations loose. While this is just on Google and Yahoo! so far, other search engines are sure to follow soon.
