I go by my own ZEM which is most amount of mobs killed as efficiently/quickly as possible.
If the zone had a high exp mod then that's just icing on the cake. Also only duo.

This all the way is the key to grinding out the levels. Except don't hard limit yourself to only duo - time spent not killing waiting for a partner isn't getting you exp, and some partners can't carry their weight depending on class combination
Alot of people want to focus on ZEM but fail to realize there is other factors to consider
1) what is the respawn and how many mobs are available?
High ZEM don't mean anything if there is just a few mobs to kill and it's a 30min respawn. Places with high density and short respawn can net more exp for high kill rate charm classes or any duos that work efficient
2) How popular is the area?
Again if the place is crowded with people constantly camped or tripping over each other ZEM Don't matter, could get more exp somewhere that has more camps or spawns without fighting other players for spawns
3) What is it worth?
Something not all players need to consider exping if your only goal is exp. But it might be worth considering, perhaps take a camp or zone with a bit less exp if it has some named or drops that can make you plat while you level.
4) Safety and Accessibility.
Last to think about but can definitely be important. How hard is it to get to the area? Is it 1 zone away from a port or 5. Is it keyed? How bad is a CR? How hard would it be to get a cleric to come rez you if you die? Are you ok with eating a death or paying a cleric for their time?
This can definitely affect exp. If you screw up alot or are getting in over your head and dieing alot then even the best ZEM won't save you
