What philosophy is behing clickbait titles?

People are writing titles you just HAVE to click. You see them on Social Media and at the bottom of websites.

Example of clickbait titles

And I can tell you one thing for sure

They only want the clicks

  • You are NOT going to win that garden set
  • You are NOT going to find any useful info about celebraties
  • There is NO-ONE winning that terrific holiday
  • You are NOT going to find any interesting content

Why do you click?

What is the reason you click these messages? Are you that curious to learn about something totally useless? Are you that greedy to win, that you don't even realize there is no price?

Definitely something to avoid.

Sure it is misleading Marion

Good advice Loes, especially for those who are not well informed regarding spam!

That's right, you can even gain a virus from some sites

True Loes. That's why it so important to have the best antivirus program possible. That's one item I'm always happy to pay for.

Thanks, Loes.

You're welcome Peter ☼

I see it as another form of spam! Wise words, Loes.

Blessings,
Debby

In a way it is Debby

Yes, there are many, but you cannot repeat clicking after you have seen what is inside.

Yes, get the heck out of there then Jimmy

This is a thing a true online entrepreneur who wants to help people will not do. I would earnestly seek to have the content that offers something.

Not good

No, keep away from it

quick "scam " artist's. Avoid always.

Yes! They are sensation seekers, and you don't need those

Key word "Avoid" Thank you Loes!

That's a good keyword for clickbait Michael:)

I wish members would obey rule #21 and stop using clickbait titles here at WA, no wonder some of them end up with write-bans, I often feel like clicking Report Spam myself after opening some of them!!

I wished people would use the titles and questions with useful info about the content/subject too, Richard

That's one thing I have never done. My titles are authentic. :)

That's a good thing Elwin! In the long run, you are building trust
