Why you should have text in videos

There are many reasons to use subtitles and captions in videos. Adding text structures your video content, makes it more accessible and engaging, and enables you to translate a specific message throughout your video. Adding words to your video can also be an aesthetic decision. Find out why you should add text to videos below.

Optimize search ranking

Search engines crawl text to understand what specific content is about, and rank it according to its relevance to search queries. In other words, adding text helps crawlers analyze your video content and improves your search engine ranking. A higher search ranking increases traffic and the organic visibility of your content, making it more accessible.
Empower your message

Adding text to a video helps you structure your content and highlight key points to capture your audience’s attention. Besides, videos with captions and subtitles receive 40% more views than videos without text. You can also add a call to action, boost the efficiency of your video content, or even increase purchase intent.
Reach a larger audience

Nowadays, people usually watch video content on their smartphones with the volume turned off. Creating text for your videos will help convey your message to potential customers, even on mute. Plus, the text in your video can be easily translated, making it possible to reach audiences worldwide.
Improve brand recall

Video paired with text is much more memorable. This makes it a good way to improve brand awareness. Insert your key brand messages as text, use brand fonts for the captions, and add your logo to the video. This will help viewers retain information and remember your brand identity.
