Spider Bait – Definition
Spider bait is a slang term used in Internet community.
The word spider relates to search engine spiders. Search engines spider the Internet in order to collect data on web sites and their content. When we search a phrase or word, the search engines provide search results. The search engines will list the pages in order (position 1 and down) of importance. The hope is that the user will find the information they were looking for.
The word bait relates to the web page content that is spidered and indexed in the search engines. For example, in this article I use the word search and the phrase search engines often, so this very article could be considered spider bait for those keyword phrases. Keep in mind, you don’t want to saturate your articles or stories with your target keywords. Just focus on writing for the reader.
So in conclusion, Spider bait is a piece of web content that is pleasing to the search engines. Content that is easily indexed by all of the search engines, and possibly listed in their search results.
