What about hidding content on the same page you embed the flash movie? Is the content duplicated?

Stupid question, but can you not create an html version with a redirect on those pages to the flash site and still include a nrobots.txt file on the flash site disallowing indexing?

Thank you for sharing this nifty information with us :)

There is no need to disallows the Flash pages in the robots.txt in order to ensure that
these pages are not seen as duplicate content. Search engines can’t see dynamicly loaded content from inside your flash only static. But that might change in the future.

What about caching? When i search on google for a specific word, and i click the link and can’t find the word, I view the highlighted cached page, and if it won’t load then i skip the site.
