Keyword stuffing is exactly what it sounds like. You stuff in the keywords that you want to rank for with no care for how it reads or whether it makes sense. Usually it is just a big mess of keywords in one block of text.

For example if I was to use keyword stuffing for this website I would put some text such as below:
no hands seo tool backlink software blog comment blog trackback forum trackback forum poster post to forums

The above is a very small example of keywords stuffing, usually this is automated and is used to fill big gaps of content on a website. It is most definitely against all search engines guidelines and though it could work to gain rankings all it takes is a single competitor to report your website and you will be hit with a manual review penalty or ban from the search engines.

This is nothing relating to No Hands SEO, is not how it was intended to be used and cannot be used for anything to do with keyword stuffing. I would never advise anyone use keyword stuffing for the above reasons and it is generally a terrible idea to even try it, it is an outdated method that used to work about 15 years ago but is just going to end up in a swift correction to your rankings as soon as you are reported (if it is not spotted by the search engines algorithms already).

Keywords stuffing are when you write text that is filled with lots of keywords but basically no content in order to attempt to fool search engines into thinking that your website is about some subject. This is a really bad idea, though, because in writing a blob of keyword text, you have made your website less useful to humans, and how relevant your website is to humans is what any good search engine will rate you on. So, in short, make your website relevant and useful, and SEO will automatically follow.

As this has been answered and is completely irrelevant to anything that No Hands SEO is about I am closing this thread.
