Flash is a pain search enigne can't work out content from flash sites, However all is not lost with googles move away from easily editable onpage elements to off page elements now you can play the game like everyone else (albeit with one leg tied behind your back):

Find the keyphrase you want to compete on:

Make use their in your title tag

if you can add them at the bottom of the page in plaine text,

Then concentrate on getting links with the anchor text from high PR websites.

If your felling clever provide Google with a cloaked page just fro the spide that provide then with a Html equvilant. Site do manage it but it is harder.

Also try and get you keyphrases in the URL string.

Is it just one page or multiple pages?

With multiple pages if you can build in a html link on the first page to a html site map then use on that page have a link to every page in your website, using the keyphrase you want to optimise for in anchor text, then rename all of the pages with the keyphase in them for example.

Blue wigets --> www.widgets.com/bluewidgets.html

Plus if you can have a html link at the bottom of each page linking to our home page again using the achore text you want optimise to then this will be the most effecient use of your Page rank.

you cant optimized flash sites as html or dynamic pages, thats for sure.

i think nixies78@yahoo covers this well,
dont exept miracles when your keywords is only at your title and your pages names.
Anchor text of inbound links is the most important for flash sites and the only one who can save the situation.

For the keywords i suggest you to find low competition keywords with medium popullarity. Dont try for example for a site about tourism to play with keywords like hotels, rooms, car rent etc.. find low competition keywords like "spanish luxury hotels" or something like that-)

for keywords popularity and try some good keywords in google and altavista to see how many results they showing in every keyword... for deeper work you will have to see how good optimized is that sites... at least the top 20 sites.
