SEO friendly Flash

  Although Flash accessibility programming has become the best means to get your Flash content recognized by spiders, the fact still remains that when it comes to website design for search engine performance, textual content still reigns supreme. And when you are ready to optimize Flash content using SWF Object 2.0. You must include traffic-driving, keyword-based messages. Understand the keywords your target market is searching for and feature them in the messages within your Flash content.

If replicated in Flash replacement content, these keywords have the potential to drive traffic to your website. Give more emphasis to language over images. While deciding your Flash design scheme,always remember that language can be replicated in replacement content but it is not applicable in the case of images. If possible, leave your images out of your Flash content and focus on content that can be replaced and recognized by engines.

You can also use videos that contain content that can be "replaced." Customer-engaging video content with keyword-rich messages actually help stimulate search engine visibility if it is replicated in text form. Just keep in mind that if your video primarily consists of dialogue, the "spoken words" must also be available in readable form to qualify to be "replaced" in text form.
 
You must Include links in replacement content, If your Flash content features links to other important parts of your website, make sure to include them in the Flash replacement content, making them visible search engine crawlers. Avoid spam tactics and make sure the replacement content made available for search engines is an accurate representation of the Flash content that is made available for users.

Real Estate Crisis

In the past year we have been year we have been seeing real estate decline significantly.  I personally held of on buying real estate as whenever I looked at it, I thought it was well overpriced.  So the downturn did not come as a surprise to me but the size and ferocity of it, did. 

The lifecycle of this real estate crisis’s can be summarized as follows:

  1. As long as housing prices were rising homeowners were willing to borrow more and more to buy real estate.  And as long as someone was willing to lend them money at cheap rates everything was ok.
  2. The lenders reckoned that as long as they could package the securities and sell them to financial institutions, then it was of their balance sheet and they did not care.
  3. The financial institutions were of the view that as long as the securities were rated by an accredited credit rating firm, then they could buy that security and hold it.
  4. The credit rating firms were rating security based on current home prices and foreclosure rates and accordingly gave them high ratings.
  5. Regulators turned a blind idea to the possibility that home prices could decline because they had a vested interest in keeping the bubble going and turned a blind eye to any naysayer who dared to think otherwise.   That is why Alan Greenspan looked at it and called it a froth and not an bubble. 

How can we fix this going forward.  The most important thing would be for regulators to call a spade a spade.  Next time we are in a bubble, the regulators should be able to recognize and say it is a bubble.  Of course, we do need to look at how we can fix mortgage fraud which became systemic during the bubble. 


This is my personal view and in no way represent the view of my company or any one within the company.
