Example sentences:
Umpan klik (clickbait) adalah suatu istilah pejoratif merujuk kepada kandungan dalam web yang ditujukan untuk mendapatkan penghasilan iklan dalam talian, terutamanya dengan mengorbankan mutu atau ketepatan kandungan melalui kebergantungan kepada tajuk sensasi atau gambar yang menarik mata guna mengundang klik-tayang (click-through) dan mendorong penerusan bahan tersebut melalui rangakaian sosial dalam talian. Tajuk "umpan klik" umumnya bertujuan mengeksploitasi "juramg keingintahuan" (curiosity gap) dengan hanya memberi maklumat yang cukup membuat berasa ingin tahu, tetapi tidak cukup untuk memenuhi rasa ingin tahu tersebut tanpa mengklik pada pautan yang diberikan.
