Typography Basics for Bold Text

Use bold text to emphasize meaning, improve scannability, and enhance SEO without hurting readability.

Semantic vs. Visual Bold

Use <strong> for important content and <b> for stylistic boldness. Prefer CSS font-weight for design consistency.

Best Practices

  • Bold only key phrases; avoid bolding entire paragraphs
  • Keep contrast high and line-height comfortable
  • Use numeric weights (600–800) that your font supports
  • Maintain accessible color contrast when bolding links
