What are the benefits of getting your podcast transcribed?

Increased Accessibility

Increased Accessibility: Providing transcripts of your podcast can make your content accessible to a wider audience, including those who may be deaf or hard of hearing. In addition, some people may simply prefer reading over listening, making transcripts a valuable option for reaching those individuals. Having transcripts can also make it easier for non-native speakers to follow along with your content. By making your podcast more accessible, you are increasing your potential reach and building a more inclusive audience.

Improved SEO

Search engines typically prioritize written content over audio content when it comes to search results. By providing transcripts of your podcast, you are providing search engines with a text-based version of your content, which can help improve your podcast’s search engine optimization (SEO). This can make it easier for potential listeners to discover your content, ultimately leading to increased visibility and potential listenership.

Repurposing Content

Transcripts can serve as a valuable source of repurposable content. By having a written version of your podcast, you can easily extract key points, quotes, or other valuable insights that can be repurposed into other marketing materials. For example, you could turn a particularly insightful segment of your podcast into a blog post or social media update, helping to extend the reach of your content beyond the podcast itself.

Better Engagement

Providing transcripts can also help increase engagement with your podcast. By having a written version of your content, listeners can easily reference specific sections of your podcast, follow along while listening, or even skim through the transcript to get a sense of the content before deciding to listen. This can help make your content more accessible and engaging, ultimately leading to increased listenership and engagement with your brand.

Unlock the full potential of your podcast with accurate and reliable transcription – the game-changer for accessibility, discoverability, and engagement.

So, will it be all right if you put your phone on silent?
IE
That's fine.
IV
Are you all right for time today?
IE
Yes, we were supposed to have a meeting right now with the boss and some members of the board, but it has been cancelled, so my time is now all yours.
Please go ahead.
IV
Excellent, okay. I don't know exactly what you've been told about today, but we're looking at what people do when they go online. My name is Bob and I work for an independent research company called XYZ. What we are going to do is just have a little chat about what you do online and what sorts of websites you might go onto, and then I want you to imagine that you have 15 minutes to spare and for you to do what you normally do online. At that point I'm probably going to just go out of the room for a bit and I'll be observing from another room, and the later we will chat about what you did.

Okay.

So, it is very simple, you know. It's really about your actual behaviour.
