Our webmaster enjoyed this pretty website with a chill-out soundtrack, but is worried about the search limitations of using pure Flash

Webmaster鈥檚 verdict

stirred mixed emotions when I visited the site. On the one hand, you have an extremely pretty website set to an eclectic chill-out house soundtrack.

Being a luxury developer, Candy & Candy was always going to deliver a pleasurable viewing experience, be it unconventional at times. Small things like hiding the mute button in a tiny graphic could turn away the non-music-loving crowd, but this is a tiny detriment to a simple, yet informative website.

On the flipside, you have another pure Flash site that won鈥檛 be directing organic search traffic. Siteometrics () puts Candy & Candy outside the top 1,000 search results for keywords such as 鈥渋nterior design鈥�. With Flash still so bad for search engine optimisation, you鈥檙e not going to get a new audience from Google this way 鈥�
