Can we combine Silver-light with Asp.net to implement SEO? I mean i want to Program with ASP.net and if i need Animation i use Silver-light? Because i think it can help to find site with Search Engin, is it right?

There are 2 types of silverlight applications.
1) Full blown silverlight application - The entire UI is written with silverlight.
2) Island of Richness application - In this scenario Silverlight is used to enhance a specific part of an application with Rich UI. Commone scenarios include video players, data grids, or more complex animations.
So to answer your question yes this is completely possible.

Silverlight is not search engine friendly regardless if you use ASP.NET or not. Search engines can not read the information in Silverlight so it essentially doesn't exist as far as the search engines are concerned. If you want the information displayed by Silverlight to be found and indexed by the search engines you will need to provide an alternative means of displaying that content. This is usually done by placing HTML within the <object> tag used to display Silverlight content. It is only shown when Silverlight is not available in a browser and search engines can see it just fine. (It's basic accessibility).

SEO of Silverlight sites is certainly doable (ignore anyone that still says it is not),
SEO on a Silverlight website
First ensure that you provide a sitemap for the searchengines. That should map to all content pages.
Provide a parallel ASP.Net website to publish your content for the search engines to read. This is now quite easy with RIA services as an ASP.Net website can consume a RIA service just like any other WCF service.
Make good use of headers, meta tags, titles, human-readable urls to include relevant keywords

I want to create a learning plan for myself and for other novice students, lets say that I want to be able to create professional websites using asp.net.
C#, HTML, CSS , JS ASP
What do you recommend ?
For me, I started learning by browsing tutorials on Youtube. But still, the best way is through experience (at work). Learning the hard way as they say. :)
First, you should learn C# very well,
you can refer to this link to learn C# --- Click here to learn C#
Then you should have clear concepts on HTML/HTML5.
Refer to this link Click here to learn HTML
Then you should learn CSS , as you know CSS helps us in designing the website, and it looks pretty much attractive.
Refer to this link Click to learn CSS
Then you should learn JS, to make the page more dynamic.
Refer to this link Click to learn Javascript
Javascript helps us to program the behaviour of webpage
Then you should learn a database language such as mysql to store data into the database.
If you are using Visual Studio for learning ASP.NET using C#, you can follow the procedures given below : -
a. First learn how to use the forms - using textboxes, buttons, image etc.
b. Second, learn how to configure the database using .sqlexpress? ADO.NET
c. Third, learn to use grid view, data-table
or you can make a simple website of where you can insert, update,search,delete of the employees in a certain organization.
d. Then learn AJAX.
If you are not using Visual Studio , you can follow the link given below

While Single-Page application approach is rising as a web development choice, I still don't understand, practically, how would losing the ability to go back/forward in the browser be an O.K sacrifice? Imagine Facebook without direct page navigation! Is there an essential/direct purpose for SPA I can't get my hands on?
You wont have to give up back button functionality to develop a single page application. HTML5 has a history api (and there's polyfills for older browsers) which allows your to keep back button functioning properly.
The main reason (in my opinion) to go for a single page approach is the more app-like feel it gives you. For example gmail feels more like an app than a web page, and given its purpose, I think that's way it should be too. Another example might be the pixlr online image editor.
Single page approach indeed doesn't suit every purpose, but when you want a webapp to feel just that, instead of a website, then single page might be the way to go.
You mentioned direct navigation in comments, and that's totally doable if it's something that makes sense in your context. Angularjs can do that, and I'm sure pretty much every modern single page framework has a way of implementing this.

I am currently working with a classic asp application. We are looking to upgrade this in small phases to .NET. what I mean by small phases is page by page over an extended period of time.
I want to minimize impact to users. So upgrade pages but keeping the look the same for now. The classic asp app is all frames based so I think i could keep the look and run the upgraded page and point to the new page?
My questions are, what is the best method in doing this in peoples experience? Again I want to build this in .NET so I don't know if i would be best off using MVC or asp.net? would utilizing a particular framework make any difference here?
Those folks who have went through this pain in the past what were some gotchyas in upgrading and running a newer technology with an older technology? I would imagine i shouldn't have to much heartache in running these together.
Any additional things we should think about?
Thanks for the assistance.
MVC provides more control and flexibility. You can use .cshtml page to insert html code and use model variables (#Model.xxx with Razor) defined in your .cs code. You can easily display list box, combo box and other controls. Besides it does not require AJAX.

For a few days now i am looking for a webdesigners who can make my page look nice. All i can find is people that are making .psd files of websites so i can cut out elements and put them on my page. I don't need that. I want someone, who will visit my page, look through my .css file, remake it, and maybe add few graphic elements on site - like logo and/or some icons.
I would do it by myself, but i am very bad at selecting/coupling colors, so i need someone to do it for me.
So, reasuming: how do i search through google to actually find people that can make my page look good by remaking my .css files?
People still go by the umbrella term Web Designers : http://www.hanselman.com/blog/HireAndPayADesignerAndBeHappy.aspx
I generally search css web designers to narrow it down.
Altho this area may seem gray there are a few professionals involved on different aspects of what you want.
The reason behind the confusion is that the same professional might occupy more than one role.
A Web Designer should be be able to do that. And it is required of one the basic knowledge of CSS/HTML alongside with your description.
A Web Ui Engenier is the specialist on CSS/HTML/JavaScript he wont design the interface per say He is the guy who implements it.
And a Web UX Designer is the person who will design the user interface and experience. How it should behave and the UI engenier will implement it.

How to make maintenance document for a website? I've created a site using XHTML ,CSS, jQuery etc. it's big site.
Now i have to write a maintenance document for a site for if any changes comes in future related to design, content and functionality then those things will be handled by someone else.
How and what should i keep in maintenance document.
Your maintenance document should contain a high-level design of what each file contains and the general code structure of the project.
For example, if you wrote some javascript to handle certain events, document those and how they interact with the page.
You should also document any logical groupings you've made. If a folder contains all the XHTML for a certain topic, write those down.
Also give a brief explanation of how you used CSS to layout the page. Which classes are where on the page, and which classes or ids are important.
As for the how, I like to set up a Wiki in such cases, for example DokuWiki. They're easy to understand, and in case of DokuWiki there's no database involved, just plain text files.
As to what, (in addition to what Ben S nicely outlines in his answer) I'd cover
The basic technologies used
Any client-side libraries used and their versions
A rundown on the directory structure
The hosting environment, what is configured where, control panel URLs and the like (never actual passwords)
Names and contact data of contacts (Tech support, etc.) plus any experiences with them (how best to reach them, phone, mail, etc.)
