Hi, i have created a flash (i know, useless for SEO) site (http://smallurls.net/2138) for a friend and i am wondering if there is anything at all i can do to help improve the SEO.
I need to get the site listed high in google for the search term "driving lessons wexford"
Can anyone advise me on what i could do help improve the SEO of this site (without changing it from flash)
thanks in advance

Hi,
The 1st thing I would do is to add an alternative text content to the flash animation:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="800" height="550" data="flash/movie.swf">
<param name="loop" value="true" />
<param name="menu" value="false" />
YOUR TEXT HERE
</object>
Write a paragraph about the site's content (must include its keywords).
visitors won't see it, but search engines will.
note that this is compatible with W3C's requirements.
That will help but I guess it cannot do miracle.
In your position I would do a 'non flash' page to present the site. This non flash page will need to be optimised for SEO.
Another thing, update the title of the html document to include precisely the key expression you're targeting : "driving lessons wexford"
good luck!
