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.

Everything was going fine, but my brother started picking fights by leaving trash out then claiming I did it. It was obvious he was picking a fight. I saw his astrology notbook and saw why. He totally Naidhana-baited me because God-forbid he's happy for once.
