Hey all.
Bottomline is I'm redesigning my portfolio website that I haven't been updating for quite sometime. One reason is design and the other is search engine optimization; it used to be (and the current online version is) all flash but now I'm making a version using html and flash.
The only html page is the index one and it has almost all the text but the remaining is a flash movie hidden in a div that loads section swf's. Finally these section swf's use xml documents to gather data.
Since xml documents are not indexed by the engines, I thought maybe choosing rather html documents over the xml ones would be better but I still don't think these will be indexed by the engines because they are not directly linked in the main page. My question is, do you think they will be considered because they are used anyway and they exist in the relevant directory? What if I make a site map page and load it in a div in the main page? Do files loaded with, say AJAX get indexed?
Thanks in advance.
