Web Designers are still using Frames
This must stop now! There are still web development firms that are creating new sites using frames. This is out of control; frames are NOT SEO friendly and never will be. A friend of mine asked me to look at his real estate site recently and the moment I hit the site I saw frames. My friend told me that this company called him out of the blue to build his site and that it was search engine friendly etc.
I can’t get over the lies that are told, these guys need to go out of business.
I got an email from a UK Celebrity today asking me about her site. She couldn’t understand why she wasn’t getting any traffic on her own name. I opened up the site, completely built in frames. All of the great content that was written about her is being called in from another server.
FRAMES ARE EVIL!!!!

Having "Frameset" will lower your rankings but it doesnt mean that it is something disliked by search engines. We have seen websites which consists of "frameset" tag with two frames, One pointing to ABC.html, and other pointing to DEF.html. Now if your ABC and DEF.html are properly optimized ,they will immediately capture ranking on search engines and will show as
Your URL/ ABC.html
Your URL/ DEF.html

So basically you are saying that it's a good user experience to land on a frame set and not load any of the navigation?
BTW, when I worked at Inktomi we did not support frames and Yahoo still does not support frames.
If you wish to advertise on my blog I suggest a more tactical approach to giving guidance. For example, here is Google's stance on this subject Google's Help Center
Google also is huge on accessibility thus since frames will break in screen reading programs it does not make sense to use them.
