otherwise you may end up with a very long unappealing page."

I agree.  An alternative would be frames, as a screen reader will read one
frame before moving onto the next.  So, the content of a frame won't be
merged with that of another.  As an aside, most screen readers also include
the ability to jump from one frame to the next, which can facilitate quicker
navigation.
