Podcast transcription is fast becoming very popular.

Not only because some of your visitors will prefer reading, but also because it can maximize SEO for your blog or site.

Depending on how you use, transcripts of your podcasts can maximize your SEO.

• Publish it along with the podcast – some people still prefer reading to listening.  For some people its easier and faster to skim through your post then listen to a podcast.
• Package it as a free report or white paper. Positions you as an expert in your niche.
• Turn a collection of transcripts into ebook – give it away free to your subscribers, you will earn their trust and respect.
• Search engines love new content.  When you publish your podcast transcripts as blog posts your blog is SEO-ed.  Search engine cannot index your podcasts.  While text is easili indexed.
• Your transcripts will be keyword rich naturally.
• Write a SEO optimized heading rich in keyword(s).
• Link to other posts/pages on your blog or outside resources.

Podcast transcription naturally takes care of search engine optimization for your blog.

The only question is – do you want to type the transcripts yourself or outsource to a podcast transcriptionist, who understands search engine optmizing blogs.

Video blogging or vblogging is going to be huge.

With easy and cheap or even free access to video editing tools and online resources, video bloggers are in could nine.

What if I tell you there is a little secret that can skyrocket the online incomes of thousands of video bloggers out there?

The “secret” is to simply provide transcripts of the videos you posted.  Transcripts are provided by podcast transcription service providers.

Yes, its THAT simple.  But thousands of video bloggers make the mistake of posting their videos and then they think they are done.

What they fail to acknowledge is, there are thousands of potential audience who prefer text-base posts.

By providing transcripts of your video posts or podcasts:

• you cater to more readers/customers
• it takes less time to read the transcript than watch a video thereby a reader can quickly decide to subscribe or buy your products.
• you can now serve more ads by incorporating them in your transcripts
• Google loves texts and therefore SEO benefits for your blog cannot be underestimated
• by providing transcripts of your video posts you differentiate yourself from the competition who don’t
• If sites like CNN provides transcripts, why not you?

If you were video blogging without transcripts re-purpose your old videos and provide their transcripts to beat the competition now!
