I am using EB Garamond as body font on my blog. In the articles I want to emphasize words by setting them bold. The bold Garamond looks really ugly. After investigating I found out, that there is no bold version of Garamond. Is there a match for a Bold Garamond?
I am using this font library for the site. brick.im/fonts/ebgaramond/

If you plan on using your EB Garamond for the non bold text and use another font for the bold text, you might end up with some issue and inconsistencies. This is just a suggestion but it might be easier to simply find another font that offers you the bold as well.
Another alternative: If your text isn't 100% black but gray, you can add emphasis by making the bold text fully black or darker. There's also the underline... but that's not always the most stylish option.
If you really want to stick to Garamond...:
Adobe Garamond Pro (TypeKit $)
Garamond (WebType $)
