  • ASP.NET is part of the .NET Framework. The .NET Framework comprises over 2,500 classes that you can employ in ASP.NET applications. Therefore, ASP.NET takes complete advantages of the Common Language Runtime, type safety, inheritance, security, and all of the other features of that platform.

  • Multiple language support. While ASP classic pages are created with only scripting languages such as VBScript and JavaScript, ASP.NET pages are created with advanced programming languages such as Visual Basic .NET and C#.

  • ASP.NET pages are compiled. When an ASP.NET page is first requested, it's compiled and cached on the server. This significantly improves performance. All ASP.NET code is compiled rather than interpreted, which permits early binding, strong typing, and just-in-time (JIT) compiling to native code.

  • Ease of configuration. ASP.NET configuration settings are stored in XML-based files, which are human-readable and -writable. Any standard text editor or XML parser can be used to build and edit ASP.NET configuration files. ASP.NET automatically applies new configuration settings to web resources whenever it finds any changes to configuration files, without re-booting the server.

  • Code-behind logic. The main problem with ASP classic pages is that an .asp page doesn't provide modularized code. Both HTML and script are present in a single page. But Microsoft's ASP.NET implementation contains a newfangled method to break up business logic code (functional code) from presentation code (HTML code). The code-behind file (.aspx.vb or .aspx.cs) consists of event handlers, initialization code, and other supporting code for the user interface in the .aspx file.

  • Browser-independent applications. Web forms offer a framework for developing application logic on the server; this eliminates the need to explicitly code for differences in browsers. ASP.NET takes care of detecting the type of browser and browser compatibility issues when it generates code for a server control.

  • Memory leak, deadlock, and crash protection. ASP.NET automatically detects and recovers from errors such as deadlocks and memory leaks to make sure that your application is always available to your users.

  • Performance and scalability. ASP.NET output caching can dramatically improve the performance and scalability of your application.

  • Simplified deployment. With ASP.NET, you can deploy an entire application as easily as an HTML page: Just copy it to the server. No need to run regsvr32 to register any components, and configuration settings are stored in an XML file within the application.

Good article - there are more benefits than just these though.
