For this purpose--if you need a "generic" inline element--use the
generic inline element, <span>. There's nothing wrong with:
.visualCue
{
font-weight: bold;
}
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, <span class="visualCue">consetetur</span>
sadipscing elitr, sed diam nonumy eirmod tempor invidunt ut labore et
dolore magna aliquyam erat, <span class="visualCue">sed diam</span>
voluptua. At vero eos et accusam et justo duo dolores et ea rebum.</p>
...when you don't have the appropriate markup in standard HTML. It
provides a much richer semantic structure than is possible with <b>.
