Podcast Transcripts
What is a transcript?
Basic transcripts are a text version of the speech and non-speech audio information needed to understand the content of an audio recording. Transcripts provide valuable information about the context of an audio recording, who is speaking, and the correct spelling of certain unfamiliar words that may be in the recording itself.
Transcripts also allow search engines to "hear" the content of the podcast by reading the transcript document. This makes it easier for your podcast to be found in search engines.
For examples of excellent UADA podcast transcripts, check out the Grown Up "U" Podcast and the Beekeeping Basics Podcast.
