What is the best way to distribute a .NET application? Should you
include a version of the .NET

framework? Is there a way to silently install it?

You could look at setup&deploymemt projects in Visual Studio if you have a
fairly basic app and install. This will install the framework silently (the
setup.exe bootstrapper). Also, any reasonable setup tool from 3rd parties
like Wise, InstallShield, Advanced Installer, WiX has a way of installing
many kinds of prerequisites, Visual Studio setups do too.

If you are a web-based app ClickOnce might be a useful alternative.

ClickOnce is for desktop apps, not for web-based apps.
