Strong And Bold Tags In HTML

In this article, we will discuss strong and bold tags in HTML.

Strong Tag

We have 2 types of HTML tags i.e., presentational, and semantic HTML. Presentational HTML specifies how the markup is displayed in the browser whereas semantic HTML is when HTML markups convey meaning.

So strong tag is both presentational as well as semantic. From a presentation perspective, this tag displays the text in bold format whereas semantically it tells the web crawlers that this text is important.
