I have just designed my first website, and it’s all flash.  
I need to know how to embed keywords, tags, or the text content of my site so that the site’s content is searchable.  
I hear it can be put in the .html header - true?  
or should I design a simple site in Dreamweaver to accompany the flash site that’s searchable …  
Any help would be appreciated,  
Thanks!

You can make a simple site in Dreamweaver or anything, then use [SWFObject to replace the main DIV with your Flash content. This is best practice so that visitors without Flash (including search engine bots) can access your content. For howto find “How to embed Flash Player content using SWFObject dynamic publishing” in the [URL=“http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/documentation”]SWFObject documentation](http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/).
