When you transcribe a YouTube video, the transcript can be useful in many ways. Some of the most common benefits of transcribing a video include:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Search Engine Optimization</li> </ul>When you add subtitles, the text can appear in Google search results when someone types a similar phrase in the search box. This helps get more views to your videos, thus giving your channel popularity, and you, monetary gains in the long run.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Accent</li> </ul>If the speaker in the video is from a different region and is using an accent that you are not much comfortable with, you can turn on the subtitles and read the dialogs along with the video.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Repurposing on Blogs</li> </ul>If you own a blog that you have embedded your video to, the transcription could be used to add text to it so the target audience can get a fair idea of what the video is all about. This is useful because many people prefer reading over watching.[URL unfurl="true"]https://filmora.wondershare.com/youtube-video-editing/transcribe-youtube-video.html[/URL]</blockquote>
