How to be awesome at creating, editing, structuring and uploading a transcript?

October 08, 2020 • Ahmed Khalifa • Episode 85

Episode 85 - Even though my first love captions, I don't think that transcripts get the love, attention and respect they deserve. This is evident when most people just copy and paste a big chunk of text onto a document or web page and assume that "it will do".

But you are missing out on so much more. And more importantly, so is your audience.

If you are a content creator and use media such as videos and podcasts, having an accurate and well-designed transcript can impact both your website/content and your audience experience.

So instead of dumping some text, consider following the step-by-step guide below on how to create, edit, structure and upload a transcript that your content and audience deserves.
