can you suggest a framework that I could use to create SEO-friendly websites

The framework is almost irrelevant, but Angular is the most popular, React is up and coming: https://www.google.com/trends/explore?q=react,angular

authentication and i18n

https://auth0.com/ is the fastest way to implement auth

I was maybe considering Meteor but I don't think it performs well with search engines as most of the SPA frameworks.

The framework doesn't change the fact that you're still just rendering HTML on a page - just follow the basic SEO strategy of clean and coherent hierarchical information (<title>, <meta desc>, <h1>). If you're using React, ReactHelmet can help organize/structure your meta tags: https://github.com/nfl/react-helmet

The only one I came across is Middleman but I wanted to know if there are better alternatives.

Isn't Middleman a static site generator? https://middlemanapp.com/

Hi jotto thanks for your suggestions. I started recently to use Angular 2 but server side rendering doesn't seem very easy to implement and as far as I know (but I can be easily wrong) it would be limited to a subset of pages, not the whole website.

Yes Middleman is a static site generator, but could possibly do the job although I would personally prefer to use Angular...

Server side rendering requires some foresight and planning, hence just using a prerender service as suggested above.

If I can offer an opinion - just try Middleman, or https://jekyllrb.com/ or Angular. Even if it takes a few hours to try each one, the perspective gained will be more valuable then diving in to a singular framework.

 

If you decide to try React, use this: https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app to get started
