Fair enough.
But what if your keywords are so super-competitive that you really don't stand much of a chance of ever getting in the Top 10 or Top 20 for your most important keywords?
And what if most of your leads are developed through offline channels, paid search, or basically everything else *but* natural search?
And what if what you sell is something high-concept or high-design? What if you are selling your own creativity?
And what if your target market is almost certainly on broadband with the latest (or near-latest) browser plug-ins?
It seems to me that if these stars are all in alignment, there's a good case for letting the designers go nuts and build a slick Flash site. No?
I'm really interested to hear what people think about this topic because I'm starting to think that a Flash Web site could very well have its place in certain businesses. Then again, I've had it beaten in my head for so long to "Just say 'No!' to Flash" that I can't quite get comfortable with reversing this philosophy.
Help!
