HTML <strong> tag is a phrase element utilized to showcase the significant text within a document on the web browser. The content enclosed in <strong> tags holds semantic value for search engine optimization and highlights the text with unique emphasis.
The content enclosed in the <strong> tag appears in a bold typeface by default when viewed on a web browser, but it is possible to modify this style using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).
Note: Do not use <strong> tag just for making text bold, and if you want to make your text bold without any semantic importance then use <b> or CSS property.
