Oh, come on, I'm not going to give away everything for nothing ;-)
I will say, a couple of years ago SEO was like a black art to me, and the
hints and links given on the forum, plus a bit of reading around the
subject, have made it relatively easy to get a key phrase into the top ten,
so it would be mean of me not to make one more contribution. It is possible
to get Flash sites up there, done that too, with alternative non flash pages
and a good text description of what the Flash is all about, and the links
contained within it. In HTML pages images and links need good, relevant
alt/title tags, whether or not the site is image heavy - I got a listing for
a photographer whose site was both image and Flash heavy, without resorting
to any underhand tactics. Find your niche, research your keywords, and those
of the competition, and good luck!

HTH, Paul.
