“Bullshit websites” is a colloquial term typically used to describe websites that are:
1. Low-Quality or Deceptive
These sites often have:
- Clickbait titles with little useful content
- Poor grammar and formatting
- Misinformation or fake news
- Overloaded ads or pop-ups that interfere with reading
- Misleading claims, often to sell a product or service
2. Made Just for Profit
- Built to generate ad revenue with little concern for content quality.
- Filled with plagiarized or AI-generated content with no real value.
- Some are part of content farms — sites that mass-produce articles for SEO.
3. Scam or Malicious Sites
- Try to phish for personal info or install malware.
- Often disguise themselves as legitimate services or news.
4. Parody or Satirical Sites (sometimes)
- Some “bullshit websites” are intentionally absurd or fake, like The Onion, which is satirical and clearly not meant to deceive.
- These can be mistaken for real if the context isn’t clear.
If someone says, “That’s a bullshit website,” they usually mean it’s unreliable, untrustworthy, or a waste of time.
