Default HTML vs ASP

EdRust asked: "How long does it take for links to propagate?"

There is usually a difference between how long it takes for you to see the links in Google by checking your backlinks and how long before you see a benefit from those links.

The benefits are a bit hard to pin down since usually more that 30 days has passed before you see any change, assuming Google finds the link. Google doesn't tend to update the backlink results more than once every 2-3 months lately. Benefits usually occur before you see the links in the results.

ASP and PHP pages are not a problem to index properly in any of the major search engines. There can sometimes be problems with the way the site is designed but there are HTML websites that don't index properly. The extension doesn't present problems its the site design that can cause the problem. Some designs are more crawler friendly than others.

The URLs in most cases are a problem although Google can crawl most dynamic URLs as long as they don’t have session ID in the URL.
