Zend Framework is very SEO framework. Others that rely on a lot of ajax or javascript POST callbacks to facilitate basic navigational tasks will stop a search engine dead in its tracks.I have also seen frameworks which use strange http redirects as part as the controller, this has the habit of killing search engines as well.Speed is also important in SEO, being able to output the correct http cache tags. You should have complete control over the output HTML, the ability to create descriptive css styles and have full control over the structure of your html output.Clean URL support is good in ZF, but the default front controller still needs some modification to be truely SEO friendly.
