Conductor is a substance,which conducts electricity due to flow of maximum electrons.

Conductor means, it is a substance which easily flow of electricity.

Conductor has more free electrons and the energy gap between conduction and valence band is less so free electron easily goes to conductance band so.

In an atom the free electrons are present at outermost orbit.It can easily flow from one atom to another by applying voltage. So it is called as conductor.

Every conductor has many free electrons for which they can conduct electricity.

Thanks cheeku

Conductors have more free electrons that are not aligned, once the voltage is applied they start conducting, but semiconductors don conducts til the threshold voltage is overcome. So conductors have more free electrons than others.
