What's the best way to transcribe your audio or video content into blog form for free? How To Pull Transcriptions From YouTube Videos. What's up everybody Paul Hickey here with your data-driven daily tip. Props to one of our data-driven apprentices, TJ, for coming up with the content behind today's data-driven daily tip. TJ just changed my world and saved me a ton of time. This is what it's all about, so if you're like me and you create content every day or very consistently and you create video or audio content and need it to be basically transcribed quickly and accurately, TJ showed me how to do that on YouTube. So I'm showing you now how to get transcriptions from your YouTube video. This saves you a ton of time, and it's free. You can literally make these your blog posts. Underneath the title to the right of the Save button, you can click the ellipses - the three dots - and then click "open transcript" and the transcript opens over on the right-hand side. It'll start with timestamps, and so if you're going to use this as like a blog post, you want to essentially copy all of this and paste it into a Google Doc or a Wordpress website in the HTML editor or something like that. You're going to want to get rid of the timestamps so click toggle timestamps, and then you have nothing in your way, and you'll obviously need to clean up the styling a little bit. But if you're pasting this into a Wordpress blog for example, you click copy and then you can paste it into the HTML editor, you can paste it into Microsoft Word, you can paste it into a Google Doc and then just clean it up. And essentially you have your transcribed blog post from your YouTube video.
