Use <strong> instead of <b>
Use <em> instead of <i>
Don't underline text - it will look like a link and confuse people
 
>  So a bold italic word which is also underlined is just: <span class="bold
italic underline">word</span> 

Try <strong><em>Word</em></strong> 

Or if you use the combination a lot, set up the <em> element to have bold
italic text in (graphical/text) browsers.

The problem with <b> and <i> is that it's presentational. <strong> and <em>
on the other hand have semantic meaning (especially when using assistive
technology like text-to-speech converters).
