Limit of keywords

I don't think someone know the exact number as a limit of keywords allowed, but I'm pretty sure that number has to be within common sense. Keywords should not be over stuffed, neither in tags nor in webpage content. Search engines, especially Google like when everything is natural.

Have a great day,
Peter

Yes, one cannt say the exact numbers. But you should use the keywords as descriptive in alt tags and have your targeted related keywords in Image title.

As long as you are not repeating your keywords or else it will be a spam.

A good rule of thumb for alternative text is to keep it between 5 and 15 words.

Use your keywords where they fit with the description of the image, and don't use more than one keyword in your alternative text.

I am little bit agree with Tripta,

Well in Alt tag, you should always place only one and only one keyword that makes sense.

One or two is better. Short but more descriptive can tell what the image is.

ALT tags are basically for search engine robots to read it. So keyword should be very specific and accurate related to the image. No keyword stuffing.

The most important is that your keywords should be relevant to the site, describing it, there isn't a limit of use of keywords, as long as you don't spam or stuff kws..
