Keep your alt texts concise and relevant to the image it is describing. First and foremost, the alt should actually describe what the image is of. Part of the benefit of alt text optimization is that your images have a chance of showing up in image search results, and you arent going to get very far there if you pick a random image just to add a picture to your page and load the alt with keywords.

Alt text is also known as "alt attributes", it is the best SEO practice to create keyword relevancy on the webpage or website. Search engine crawlers cannot crawl images and the text that present on the images.

Alt text helps search engine to crawl text easily and it also help user to understand about the images.

First, it's a good on-page SEO practice, second it's allow search engines understand about the image or infographics, third it could also help you get incoming links naturally.
