@@veritasium Look at the titles and thumbnails of your most popular videos. Straight forward title and thumbnails, with legit videos to back that up.

[@spartan456]

To be fair, I think there's a difference between an eye-catching title and one that is clickbait. An eye-catching title in combination with an equally attention grabbing thumbnail is not the same thing as blatant clickbait. I get the feeling the word clickbait has begun to lose its meaning. The prime example of clickbait is when the title or some element of the title is nowhere to be found or referenced in the actual content, or has very little relation to it. Unfortunately these days I see many things being labeled as clickbait that don't follow this example. In my opinion, for something to classify as clickbait it must follow that prime example to a T. If it doesn't, it's not clickbait. I think there is a simple logic process to follow for finding out if it's really clickbait. Take videos with titles as questions, for example. Did the question posed by the title get answered in the video? If so, it's not clickbait. If not, it's clickbait.
