In one sentence

Putting the target term into the text in a way that reads as though nobody was trying.

Analogy Mental model

Salt in soup. It should dissolve so the flavour is there and the crystals are not. A phrase dropped in whole is a lump on the tongue.

In practice What you actually do

Use variants the way a practitioner would: the tool for sending newsletters, the platform that manages campaigns, the software behind the drip sequence. The primary term appears where it belongs and the variants carry the rest.

Where people get burned Pitfalls

Exact-match compulsion produces sentences like our email marketing software is the best email marketing software, which no reader finishes. It is the most recognisable form of amateur optimisation.
