To canonical or not to canonical?

    i have a site with "almost similar but not the same content" about conversion. currently all traffics came from long tail keyword query such as:
    mysite.com/unitconversion.php?q=400
    mysite.com/unitconversion.php?q=34
    mysite.com/unitconversion.php?q=54
    and thousand more results

    i understand that canonical is for similar or identical pages, but the conversion results on my pages are unique, but the wording of page are the same.

    I wish the page mysite.com/conversion.php to be more popular, but seems like nobody has visited the main page from search engine. What should i do? is canonical the best option?
