I emailed Rand about that months ago and he said it was something they should do. (I think that was even before your January posting of this). lol.

You can optimize your site’s search engine snippets and create elusivity in there, if it applies. You can also do it all on one page, starting the page with grabbing their interest, creating a question that they can expect to get answered.
