Strong is a semantic element, which is recognized by screen readers. The bold tag has only decoration purposes.

strong text is all capital letters. bold text means text with greater font weight.

They looks the same, but strong also says that text is important. User will not notice the difference. It is for browsers and search engines(CEO).

both have the same function.. but <strong> is the correct form to use <b> tag as some of the browsers don't recognize <b> tag now.. but all the browsers will recognize <strong> as a tag both will make your text bold.!!
