In addition to suggestions others have made, IMHO, it is important to break
the text up into more pages. One of the problems with a lot of text is
that it "frightens" people. What would you rather read? War and Peace or
Catcher in the Rye?
Navigation should be easy to find. Links to the most important content
should be above the fold.
By the way, I'm also stubborn about SEO practices, and I have found that
using semantically correct markup has helped a lot. It's also easier to
write (everything by hand), and easier to debug (especially for server
side).
