INCREASE ACCESSIBILITY, ENGAGEMENT AND THE POWER OF SEO!

Why are more clients choosing to have written transcripts of their audio and video presentations?

Whether it be podcasts, interviews, press conferences, panels or lectures, theatrical or filmed performances, there are many advantages to having accurate written transcripts of recorded events.

Increased accessibility for the hearing-impaired and ADA Compliance is an obvious plus. Written transcripts also provide a useful reference for any organization’s Media and Press Departments, as well as for members, fans and website visitors. A written document can help to anchor recorded material visually, providing a quick and easy way to locate or review information for those who don’t have time to search through the recording or aren’t sure how to spell certain names or words.

Transcripts can be a powerful SEO tool, allowing Google to scan information and keywords on your website that might otherwise have been overlooked. Not only will this improve your Google ranking, it will also lead visitors and customers directly to your website when they search for key phrases, names or words found in the transcript.

Having an accurate transcript is also a great help when you want to input the text as captions in a video.

NMWA Testimonial:

“Lisa is amazing to work with. She is so thorough, detail-oriented, and a great communicator. Her services made a world of difference in getting our videos online and accessible for our community.

Before, we were using online services that would mess up words, misspell common names, and just didn’t have the human touch that is so essential to correctly transcribing the words of our speakers. Lisa can handle all of the details, and makes sure that the meaning of what the speaker says is also communicated through the transcription.

Plus, these transcriptions were easy to integrate into YouTube. We are just so thrilled to have worked with Lisa. Especially when she supports the mission of our museum and work so much!”
