Flash or code for web hosting site?

    I am considering getting a really good design for my hosting site? maybe flash?

    But first i want some opinions on having an almost full flash site where only payment processing and client area is php. or is it better to get like a web 2.0 site?

    Thanks ahead of time!!!

    use both. you need the html for the search engines. do you wan your site to show up on google like this:

    superduperwebhostingcompany.com<<---flash
    superduperwebhostingcompany.com

    or like this:

    superduperwebhostingcompany.com<<---html

    superduperwebhostingcompany.com

    Also all the extra search results you get from all your pages will not be there in flash.
    google does try to read flash, but is not always good at it yet.

    Don't use 100% Flash. Just don't.

    Flash is like perfume. Less is more.
