Podcast Transcription Services
There are a few reasons for transcribing
your podcast.
-
Posting the transcription
of your podcast to your website provides the rich text content for search engines
to index. Most search engines do not index your audio file. To get traffic to your
site, you need regular, quality text content.
-
Your podcast listeners
will enjoy having a text version side by side while listening for reference and
skim. By providing all the options for your audience, they will remember which podcasts
are more user friendly than others. What is important is that the audience is given
a choice.
-
Some people simply
prefer to read the content rather than listen. Many use the content as a reference
for further studies and research. Reading a transcript can also be helpful if the
voices on the podcast are hard to understand.
-
By transcribing, you
are broadening your audience and reaching more people, such as those who are hearing
impaired.
-
The transcribed podcast
can be used with banner links in formatted and embedded form for advertising, to
sell your podcasts.
-
Transcribe your podcast
into texts in order to e-book and sell them.
Having decided that transcribing
your podcast is a good idea, what else you need to consider? You need to decide
what type of transcript would be suitable. In the transcription industry, there
are generally three styles available. Complete verbatim, intelligent verbatim and
edited transcript. The most popular choice for podcasts
is intelligent verbatim.
