Voicing the flat world

Starting with the core factor, we have to admit that “language” plays the lead role in

helping your webinars reach a larger viewership. Your webinars would be watched by

hundreds if not thousands of viewers, and many of them might be of a different

nationality; but, can you communicate to them all?

You can; by adding captions to your webinars.

And, you immediately pool in two types of viewers.

People having limited knowledge to the language

Or

has a different accent.

People having no understanding of the language

These people would need some sort of translation.

Visual Reinforcement

Some people are visual learners; their retention potential improves significantly when

Stimulated visually than via audio.

These audiences will absorb the essence of your webinars better if the audio is reinforced

with text. This visual incentive helps sprout focus & reliance over your webinars,

thus encouraging them to stick with services or products further.

So, by entertaining captions for your webinars you assist

these visual learners. Thus, effectively keeping

your attendee strength strong.

Lending an Ear

Another prime reason to caption your webinars is to assist people who are deaf or

hard of hearing. Such people will have a hard time trying to comprehend what you

offer through your webinar, unless you provide them with captions.

And, by taking measurable steps to ensure that your resources

are accessible to all people equally, you comply with the

Section 504 & 508 of Rehabilitation Act.

Reaching Out to the Search Engine

Next, is the far-reaching effect captioning has on your webinars- it’s search ability. To grow

your webinars 'viewer-traffic and to make it readily accessible to the internet community,

you need to add captions to them.

The transcripts of your audio can help capture the Google’s search bot index and weight

your webinars better in the search result.

Nullifying Noisy Environment

When in a busy, noisy place your webinar attendees might have to work extra hard to hear you,

or might even put off participating until they reach a quieter space. To assist them in such

situations, you give them captions. This gives your audience more reasons to stay connected,

and you, more opportunities to sustain and grow your webinar’s traffic.

Conclusion

So, by just captioning your webinars, you gain a

collaborative increase to your attendees’ count!
