    WordPress is good for SEO, in fact my SEO site is done in wordpress and you can check it out in the first line of my signature.

    The 'all-in-one-SEO' plugin is a must have.

    Look for the Powered by Wordpress sentence at the bottom of any pages in the website.

    Wordpress, set up and used properly, is as good as any system you'll find.

    you may want to plow your way through the 3 (long) WP SEO secrets posts linked to from the bottom of our page here.

    google search wordpress tactics

    that will give you a pretty good grounding.

    Use All-in-one SEO plugin for Wordpress

    Also, It would be better if you used a theme that has no Ajax or JavaScript

    Is that useful in terms of seo? Is that site seo friendly?
    Yes, just by adding the plugin "All-in-one SEO" makes wordpress perfect for SEO.

    How can we identify a site which is designed using word press?
    If they using a free theme it will have wordpress in the footer. Professional design websites using wordpress most of the time leave the link to wordpress out.
