Clickbait - what is it?
An old scamming technique used for attract the attention of some poor fool who gets caught on the bait.
It consist of putting hot bitches with huge breasts an thick butts and anything that would make someone's dick go solid steel or vaginas turn to water parks on a video's thumbnail, only so you click on it, and it's just a fat masturbating 14 years old boy doing something fucking useless and retarded on some crappy piece of shit of a game. The title of the video is also set to play along the thumbnail, something like "HOT BITCHES SUCKING ME OFF TILL MY TESTICLES TURN PURPLE ON MINCERAFT(GONE SEXUAL)(I DIED?).
* usual clickbait titles *
"IVE GONE TO THE VETERINARY TO
VACCINATE DAUGHTER, SEE WHAT HAPENTED(I DED?)"

"FUCKING HOT DAWG BITCHES AT ROBLOKS MOTEL (GOT RAIDED BY FBI)"

An Article with a title designed to make the reader want to hear about it, they often will claim to improve your life in some way.

Clickbait
(noun, pejorative) A seemingly innocent posting on social media that contains a link to more content, but whose true goal is to trick the viewer into clicking on the link so that the writer can collect view stats -- usually for monetary or for narcissistic purposes.
That tweet on how to get girls/guys was just clickbait -- it linked to some book on Amazon.
That posting in my stream titled "What This Person Did For That Will AMAZE You!" was just clickbait and linked to a paid advertisement video.
Clickbait
The thing I absolutely hate the most.
This method is set up by what looks like a cool or innocent article, video, etc, but once the viewer clicks on it, the creator gets profit.
On YouTube, there are many of these YouTubers. They often use overused thumbnails such as boobs, or annoying things IN the thumbnails, such as circles or arrows. These are usually attractive to many viewers, and once they get their hands on that video, the creator gains money just from people clicking.
Some may also use misleading titles. Again, this is another way to lure viewers into a video that just has a misleading title put there on purpose. And again, this is another way the creator can get money.
There are some YouTubers I've come across, and as a very underrated YouTuber, I find this act selfish and a lazy way to get money. If there's a day I get popular, I would never use this stupid method to gain money; I'd be out of my house, earning money at a REAL job.
Clickbait is just the worst thing I've seen. And I hate how some people get away with it, like YouTubers do not get terminated for spam content.
