Semantics
Content that is important, serious, or urgent.
Additional info from the ARIA specification
See related emphasis.
The purpose of the strong role is to communicate strong importance, seriousness, or urgency. It is not for communicating changes in typographical presentation that are not important to the meaning of the content. Authors SHOULD use the strong role only if its absence would change the meaning of the content.
The strong role is not intended to convey stress or emphasis; for that purpose, the emphasis role is more appropriate.
