I think you should have a landing page so that the 'powered by
wordpress' link goes to that instead of to the homepage and it can be
written for that audience.

you can use...

codex.wordpress.org/poweredby 

or some such link

-------

- Powered by Wordpress [Page Title]

Welcome! You may have arrived at this page because you followed a
'Powered by WordPress' link from another web site. 

-- What is WordPress?

WordPress is a state-of-the-art semantic personal publishing platform
with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability. What a
mouthful. WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time.

-- What does 'Powered by' mean? [anchor here for link to send out]

A link reading [Powered by WordPress] means that a site owner is
proudly announcing that WordPress is their publishing platform of
choice. 

If you need to contact the content creator or site owner, or host, 
contacting the people behind WordPress would be a mistake. Why?
WordPress is the publishing software program used by the publisher,
not the publisher. 

[Learn more] about why WordPress is not responsible for the content of
other websites. 





Then we can welcome them properly, sort and send them on their way
according to their interest.
