To many keywords on one page?

Suppose on your website you sell various items of the same category such as knives. On one of the pages you have pictures with links with a lot of knives that you sell. All of those images have a description, title, alt text. It will be a very lot of the word "knife" on the same page.

If some a machine algotithm was reading that page it could interpret the descriptions, titles, alt texts as deliberately keyword spamming, which it is not, you have just entered the description, title, alt text for all knives that you are promoting.

What should one do in such a case not to suffer any punishment for keyword spamming? Do you have any comments on this problem, and how it should be solved in an optimal way?

    the only way that I am aware of to block google from seeing to many keywords
    is to use a Iframe for some areas of your website

    google can not see what is in the Iframe

      Google can see what is inan iframe....not sure why you thought they
      did not. This is 2014.

      But putting those things in an iframe, for that site, would be
      counterproductive. You want your page (here it would be the
      parent page) to have all it can in and of itself. Not in an
      iframe. So that idea gets shot down on multiple fronts.

      Google could care less about keywords in that regard anyway.

      Too many people overthink things.

      If there was a problem, amazon and every online retailer would
      be in big trouble.

      It's not about too many keywords.

    Add the keywords in title and description and somewhere in content. Use 3-4% density. More than this will affect your website. Keyword stuffing is not good for SEO as well as website.

    Do not use a lot of keywords , 1-2 % density is good

    Using too many keywords will make your site down as over stuffing will harm your site ranking.

    The very first thing is that how many times you have used the keywords is the secondary thing but primary thing is that how you have used the keywords if it goes with the proper flow then even auto mated algorithm will not put penalty because Google developers are and Google's web spam team is very much aware about such things and they are designing the algorithm accordingly.

    So if you are doing the right thing no need to worry about the penalty.
