What Are Transcriptions?

Making a transcription involves listening to spoken words and reproducing them accurately with written text. The process requires a good ear, attention to detail, and extensive knowledge of how people in different regions communicate.

Adding audio and video content to your website can increase visitor engagement. Unfortunately, search engines don’t know how to identify content in your audio and video files. Visitors may love what you publish, but people who don’t come to your site regularly probably won’t see your work. Adding a transcription turns your audio and video into content marketing that search engines can index.

Some of the benefits you can expect from adding transcriptions to your web pages include:

  • A higher search engine ranking
  • Increased traffic to your website
  • Better communication with your audience (transcriptions can make garbled audio easier to understand)
  • More leads and conversions
  • Better access for people with hearing or vision loss

Without a transcription, you miss the opportunity to engage with potential visitors who would love to find your content.

Writing transcriptions might sound easy, but it takes several skills. The average person might be able to transcribe a minute or so of a conversation. Tackling a longer project, however, separates the professionals from the amateurs. Since transcripts can play an important role in your content marketing strategy, you need to make sure that you hire someone with experience.
