    Bolding your keyword is a surefire way of googlebot detecting a spam. Its the content and relevancy that matters.

    It can help but what helps more is using H1 header tags when referring to important keywords.

    using <strong> tag instead of bold is good, means your emphasizing that specific word..but then dont stuff up every post with that, overdoing it isnt ideal

    Bolding words tell search engines that you want to put emphasis, also it get your readers attention. It's one of the multiple ways search engines use to qualify content on a semantic level.

    It does help, and if you're on wordpress, then this plugin does it all.

    Tags "bold" and "strong" make your content more readable for the visitor. That's the main benefit. I'm not sure if it's good for SEO.
