Default Re: \"Value Bet\"?

I always was confused by value bet also. the term mixes with semi-bluff and draws.
Like u have QT, flop comes 289. U have nothing. Lots of limpers around, u bet here to narrow the field, and to make the pot bigger in case u hit your str8 on turn or river, u can also hit a pair since u have higher cards then on table.

I have heard people say this is semi-bluff when u come into the pot betting high. When u make a small bet only to not let people draw for free it would be a value bet.

So, what is the correct way to understand value bet?
