RIA (Rich Internet Application) indexing!!!

flash, google, yahoo, ria, swf, seo No Comments »

it’s been awhile but this is good news for flash in general! adobe has announced that google and yahoo have changed their search techniques to incorporate better searching of flash content…

flash has always been classed as bad technology to seo but search can already search swfs for static content and links but the news announced today is to do with dynamic content - i.e. xml and external swfs.

read more here at adobe.

update: more on the subject here from adobe - now i just wonder if the encrpted swfs can be searched and how far in the deeplink the search player can go to and does it try to play external videos… would that mean the search spider stop because of size?
