Example:
This is not news, really. It’s click bait, the stuff pageviews are made of.

OR

This is the worst article I've ever read, clearly from a massive Microsoft hater or paid by Apple/Google. It's just paid FUD clickbait, wouldn't expect any better of news.com.au. Source: Whirlpool Forum 21 Oct 2012.


click bait
A title or preview for a website, video, or other form of media that is misleading. It either doesn't have anything to do with the media or is providing false information.
Example:
An example of click bait is a title that says "Make hundreds of dollars easy!" but then links to an article promoting a window washing company. Or, a video title like "New gameplay of GAME!" with no actual gameplay in the video.

In a Sentence:
The website said that this article would tell me how to make a lot of money but it was just promoting a company, such a clickbait title.

Click bait
'Click bait' is a popular word used on the internet. It is when you use a picture or sentence to lure people to click on your website/link/video, but is not always entirely true. For example, you could make a thumbnail for your YouTube video with bold letters saying: 'I NEARLY DIED?!' and lots of watchers would immediately click on your video because they want to know what happened. It is considered click bait only when the video maker lies about what the video is about.
Example:
I'm so mad! This YouTuber just click baited me! What a waste of my time.


click bait
An online tool used to lure people into clicking on your website. It comes in a couple different forms:

One form of click bait is a thumbnail. Often these types of click bait will feature pictures of hot women or something else that can grab your attention

Another popular form is the caption of a thumbnail. These are used to build suspense and make you want to read the page. Some popular examples are "*politician* does *something newsworthy*", "you won't believe what *celebrity* did", and finally, "amazing trick to *do something hard*"

Click bait was very popular when youtube began, as many aspiring youtubers would utilize click bait to get people to click on their videos.
Example:
Guy 1: Look at that link! "Amazing trick to lose 50 pounds!"

Guy 2: It's just click bait


Click-bait
Click-bait is something that someone uses a thing that usually to get someone attention. After they clicked it's not what they wanted. Common on Youtube and ROBLOX. Click-bait titles most likely have a name like this: ''I ALMOST DIED'' or ''PRANKING IN THE HOOD (GONE WRONG)''. Those are things that never happen in the video. No one almost dies and no one pranks in the hood (usually actors). The other way people click-bait is when something happened in the video they make it look more dramatic on the thumbnail and the title. People also like to add sexual things to the thumbnail or title to grab peoples attention. For example: ''THE MOST HOTTEST GAME EVER'' It turns out to be some first-person shooter game. The other way people click-bait is they say a title but they don't finish it so you can get curious to click on the video. For example: ''WE NEED TO TELL YOU SOMETHING'' or ''WHO DID THIS TO ME?!''.
Example:
Click-bait sucks.
