They have the same effect on normal web browser rendering engines  but there is a fundamental difference between them. As the author writes in a discussion list post: (https://web.archive.org/web/20091124170143/http://lists.evolt.org/archive/Week-of-Mon-20010521/032901.html) Think of three different situations: web browsers blind people mobile phones Bold is a style - when you say bold a word people basically know that it means to add more let's say ink around the letters until they stand out more amongst the rest of the letters. That unfortunately means nothing to a blind person. And on mobile phones and other PDAs text is already bold because screen resolution is very small. You can't bold a bold without screwing something up. is a style - we know what bold is supposed to look like. however is an indication of how something should be understood . Strong could (and often does) mean bold in a browser but it could also mean a lower tone for a speaking program like Jaws (for blind people). And strong on a Palm Pilot may be an underline (since you can't bold a bold). HTML was never meant to be about styles. Do some searches for Tim Berners-Lee and the semantic web. is semantic - it describes the text it surrounds (this text should be stronger than the rest of the text you've displayed) as opposed to describing how the text it surrounds should be displayed (this text should be bold). In Short : and are explicit - they specify bold and italic respectively. and are semantic - they specify that the enclosed text should be strong or emphasised in some way usually bold and italic but allow for the actual styling to be controlled via CSS. Hence these are preferred in modern web pages. Reference : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/271743/whats-the-difference-between-b-and-strong-i-and-em
