Ive had some help from some really good guys who reccomended this forum. Im wanting to start doing my own SEO but wanted to get some people to peak at this site for me and let me know how it looks to get ranked. Feedback appreciated.

Nice site. doing SEO is not going to be a piece of cake though, because your website is only Flash. This means that google will see it as just one big black box!
The easiest solution is to add some text below or above the flash, which may not actually look good for your visitors, but will be really good for Google.

Other than this try to get many links to your website with your keywords in the anchor text.

i disagree ..

Google can see some flash i.e. links.

I recommend that you keep the flash site with the music (it looks gr8!) and have that as the version for broadband
and then where you have without music make it in an HTML version and called it a lo version for 56k.

As far as i know Google cant read the text in flash files (not that i am personally bothered as if i do a flash site i always do an HTML one also) which means google cant get keywords from Flash.

p.s. did you have a sitemap?

This will be a though job,

but what you need to do if you really want to SEO this website, is to make a none flash (HTML and CSS only) version of this website, so the spiders gets something to spider. When a visitor enters redirect the flash browser to the flash version of the website and let the non-flash browsers view the none flash version of the website. You will be walking on a razors edge here since there is very little different between doing fair SEO and spaming in cases like this one.
