flash menu

Flash menu can be Search Engine Friendly!

Flash itself is not SEO friendly, but we've found a workaround. Most flash navigation solutions have a fatal flaw: search engines ignore them. But f-source menus are different. They use a combination of HTML and Flash to get the best of both worlds: animated flash menus plus search engine compatibility. We have developed a way to combine HTML links with flash menu. That helps the search engines to find and index all menu links, captions and therefore all pages of your web site.
Menu navigation settings represented in the form of standard HTML links, well-known for search engines, but website visitors will see only well designed and animated flash menu. The menu reads the HTML (or XML) navigation by means of a special technology and creates the slick navigation on the fly.
