Basically,both are used for making text bold....but <strong> is used for #important text(Somewhere for SEO)whereas <b> is used for general #bold appearance purpose.

When a website visitor is using accessibility feature e.g. a screen reader, the words or sentences marked in <strong> will be spelt out with a different (emphasizing) intonation. Visually however, text marked by <b> and <strong> has no obvious difference.

The difference between the two HTML tags is that bold makes text only visually look bold, while strong also semantically emphasizes the respective text as important and indicates that it is a meaningful word or text section.
