Last week, I was doing a small research on ‘how effectively we can optimize a Flash website for better search engine results’. On the same, I had a couple of discussions with some of the industry known experts in various forums and we all agreed on one point. If we get a chance to opt between a fully flash website or an HTML one, we will definitely choose the later. A fully flash website makes it difficult for SEO at present. There are options such as SWFObject or siFR or JS + but the RISK IS NOT ZERO. I repeat, ‘at present’. Things may change later and search engines may become smart enough to get it right.

Keywords you choose are the base of your SEO (Search Engine Optimization) implementation plan, I believe, you don’t have any doubt in that.

We were aware that there are lot of mis-concepts exists on SEO, but never thought that it’s such a serious issue. I am shocked to see a recent comment from AMEX saying, SEO is a wastage of money’. You hired a wrong company and how on earth you can blame the entire industry for that. It actually shows how irresponsible you were while selecting the service providers. Shame on you to reveal own incapabilities and that doubles when you start blaming the other side for that. See the comment from AMEX’s OPEN – their so called A Practical Guide for Business Growth’ -:
Search engines, like Yahoo! and Google, are usually the first place people will look for you. Make it easier for them to find you. Yahoo! and Google offer tools to let them know the site map structure of your Web site. Also, using clean U.R.L.s such as yourdomain.com/store/widgets instead of yourdomain.com/store.php?id=42&categoryID=widgets will increase your chances of getting indexed in a search engine. Finally, don’t waste money on so-called Search Engine Optimization (S.E.O.) specialists.

Is that the way it should be? I really get disappointed when I get queries like ‘What all you offer in your Basic SEO package?’ or ‘Let us see your service packages’. I can’t blame them, they have already tons of so called ready-to-eat SEO proposals on their desk.
One more question I do get on a regular basis is ‘Why do you propose always long term SEO?’ or ‘Why don’t you propose a short term SEO solution?’ Simply I would like to say, I don’t have any personal benefits by suggesting SEO to your website rather you own the benefits directly from increasing the sales.

Handling clients is always a tedious job, sigh, anyway that’s part of my job so no way to escape.
