What is it & Why is it important?
- Transcription is the process of converting audio or video recordings into simple text documents. It can include timestamps that indicate when the text is spoken in the video.
- There are two main types of transcription:
- Full Transcription (capturing every word, including sound effects and all manner of speech).
- Clean Transcription (removing parts from the video or audio file without altering the meaning of the recording).
Providing professional transcription services brings many benefits to your company:
- Search engines cannot index video content, but interactive transcripts of your documents will improve SEO and drive more traffic to your website. This means users can search for keywords in the transcript and easily find the video they are looking for.
- The text will be accurately written word-for-word as spoken in the recording. Therefore, this service conveys your message more clearly and guides viewers to create a smooth experience.
- Adding transcripts to audio or video helps your content reach a wider audience, especially the hearing impaired.
