It all began when I found this amazing 100% Flash website that had html content (seen when javascript was turned off) and unique urls for each page within the entire flash page. I must understand how this technology works!

They use SWFAddress. The guy who makes it was the author of the actionscript bible. I'm... doomed. I am actionscript noob. But now we know its possible...

what does google see?

find out what google reads from your swf file:

  • Register for the licence and download the Search Engine SDK -Flash Player Developer SDKs
  • Install the SDK
  • go to START > RUN >DOS prompt > enter swf2html filename.SWF -o output.html
  • output.html will reflect what google sees in your swf
  • this information, however, is not very useful/crucial for SEO because everyone knows that swf files aren't meant to be read that way.
