All very good suggestions from everyone.
Excellent progress.

Remember split testing is everything.

One download page is a good start but you can always put 10 up and show
them in rotation.
the one that gets the maximum amount of downloads is the winner.

so if you are wondering about if you should put an element on a page just
create one with and one without.
show one half the time and the other the rest.
track the download volume and we have a winner.
