The EMD Update — for “Exact Match Domain” — is a filter Google launched in September 2012 to prevent poor quality sites from ranking well simply because they had words that match search terms in their domain names.

Example of EDM - using keywords in domain name. Now google don't like like it. Few years ago it was easy way to get top position in serp.

Exact match domains have always been the source of a lot of contention among SEOs. For quite some time, EMD’s have offered a competitive advantage for SEO’s who understood how to use them. In the early days of search when relevance algorithms were rather weak, many folks used “double dashed” domains because they were cheap to buy, and easy to rank.

Exact match domains (EMD) are exactly what they sound like.

martinsherman · 01-25-2013, 02:12 AM

EMD means Exact Match Domains.
Recently, Google released the EMD algo change which targeted low quality EMD sites. These are sites that are EMD but do not contain any relevant/helpful information on the keyword the keyword they're ranking for using their domain name.
Before, EMDs can rank for their target keywords merely for having the exact target keywords on their domain name.
