In HTML5 <strong> and <b> both exist and have a different meaning. The <b> tag is for "offset text conventionally styled in bold". If you read deeper into the details you'll see it adds, "without conveying any extra emphasis or importance". <strong> is different. It "represents a span of text with strong importance." There is semantic meaning of importance here. In fact, a <strong> tag within another <strong> tag has even more importance.

in html5 you using only <strong>. when u use strong browsers like google, bing etc. searching your words. bold only make your word darker. So only use <strong>.

<b> is a style - we know what "bold" is supposed to look like. <strong> however is an indication of how something should be understood.
