yes keyword stuffing is harmful for site

eyword stuffing is considered to be an unethical search engine optimization (SEO) technique. Keyword stuffing occurs when a web page is loaded with keywords in the meta tags or in content. The repetition of words in meta tags may explain why many search engines no longer use these tags.

Keyword stuffing had been used in the past to obtain maximum search engine ranking and visibility for particular phrases. This method is completely outdated and adds no value to rankings today. In particular, Google no longer gives good rankings to pages employing this technique.

Hiding text from the visitor is done in many different ways. Text colored to blend with the background, CSS "Z" positioning to place text "behind" an image — and therefore out of view of the visitor — and CSS absolute positioning to have the text positioned far from the page center are all common techniques. By 2005, many invisible text techniques were easily detected by major search engines.

"Noscript" tags are another way to place hidden content within a page. While they are a valid optimization method for displaying an alternative representation of scripted content, they may be abused, since search engines may index content that is invisible to most visitors.

Sometimes inserted text includes words that are frequently searched (such as "sex"), even if those terms bear little connection to the content of a page, in order to attract traffic to advert-driven pages.

Keyword stuffing is fundamentally using one keyword over and over again in your content. While other article directories consider the use of your keyword or key phrase for more than 2% already keyword stuffing, there are others that are more lenient because they allow 5-6% usage of one keyword or key phrase. It would be best if you stick to below 2% though, to be safe.

Now, if your images' descriptions have keywords or keyword phrases in them, then it might be considered keyword stuffing if you will also be using the same keywords or key phrases in them over and over again. This is especially if these images are displayed in just one web page.

If you are putting the link under the image then no, it;s not keyword stuffing. Adding the keyword in the title of the image may be another story. Were you referring to that at all? If you made the overall image a link when clicked on then this is another variable to consider. Your reference to an image in the question can go a few different ways so it is safe to check on your meaning.

Alt tags are supposed to give a description of the image they are related, so I do not think you have a problem with this example. Many sites are created the same great product.

I don't think it would considered as keyword stuffing for images. Just like what you have mentioned, you put keywords for specific product and it will redirect viewers to what they have clicked, it doesn't mean that you use keywords stuffing.
