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*"

Get the click bait mug.1. A creation such as a song that attempts to insult haters, but is such poor quality that it brings even more hate on itself.
2. A person who behaves in such a way (also known as a hater baiter).
The term sounds a little like "masturbate" which is no coincidence because ego and narcissism are where hater bait comes from.

Get the Spoiler Baiting mug.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?!''.
Click-bait sucks.
