As I work with many small to medium size clients I find I am always explaining the advantages and disadvantages of using Flash on your website. I guess the majority of developers are either pro-Flash or anti-Flash; however, I am somewhere in the middle. Flash can be beneficial to your visitors. Unfortunately you gain no benefit from the Search Engines...
Flash it a great medium for advertisements, banners, navigation and other specific areas of your site. If your entire site is in Flash then that to me could be a mistake. From a visitors standpoint Flash is awesome and hip and cool. [unless your on dial up] From a search engine standpoint Flash is worthless and can have negative effects.
