3That might actually be a static page, at least the version I saw had nearly nothing 'dynamic' on it that javascript could do easily. Static serves very quickly and scales beautifully.
As for jsp vs asp vs rails vs django, they can all be configured to not require cluttering URLs with file extensions.
If you focus on high-quality data in your application that is easily parsed by simple tools, search engines will find you. Use text for text (text in images is useless), no flash or silverlight or java applets. If your site is useful on your phone, it'll be great for search engines.
1) I have a post for developers considering SEO in their web application that can help you on your SEO.
2) For you I would suggest ASP.NET web forms since it is well equipped for beginners (as well as advanced enterprise level sites). Here is a get started guide to ASP.NET to help you out. It allows you to use routing in ASP.NET 4 to make nice URLs and URL rewriting if on an IIS server. For now though if you are not too confident, I really wouldn't worry about that.
Anyone more advanced passing by I would recommend ASP.NET MVC by the way. It is a tough concept to crack but well worth it. Unit testing is easier, speed of development is great, stateless. Lovely.
Caveat - Other than touching old school JSP for a bit, my experience is mainly Microsoft so cannot say that the ASP way is THE way. Just a good way.
I found some useful resources on this topic :
