Hi guys,

I just need everyone suggestion on these issue. I want to redesign our website, but we're confuse on whether to build a full flash website, or not.

For a business website such as webhosting, do you guys think its appropriate to have a full flash website or not. I've seen some websites that are using partial flash such as rackfast.net and modernbill .. I think theirs look awesome. But I want something more than just a plain html ..


Cheers,

Not full-Flash, just because many users want to, for example, copy text, right-click to open links in new windows, etc.

Flash will not go down well with search engines. The basic info should be HTML and the rest can be enhanced with Flash

I agree with the others, full flash is a bad idea.

I completely agree with what's been said so far. It'd be a bad choice to have your site fully constructed in flash. I think just a flash header would do well, everything else like the navigation and content in HTML.
