Why invest in translating video subtitles?
If you’re looking to drive international sales, boost accessibility or improve SEO rankings, then here’s why it’s important to translate your subtitles for your online videos.
- Time to compete: It’s vital that you keep up with your competitors, who are increasingly understanding the value of multilingual, localised translation
- Boost your SEO: Did you know that translation can also improve your SEO rankings globally? This is because search engines can read videos with subtitles. If you ensure your video script includes keyword research from the countries you are targeting, then translating subtitles can boost global SEO, increase your video views and thereby impact your organic traffic.
- Enhance accessibility for an international audience: Multilingual subtitles not only ensure that those who are deaf and hard of hearing across the world can understand your content, but they also can help anyone who has difficulties keeping up with fast-paced communication or are watching your content in a noisy environment

SRT Translation
You can start off by simply providing us with a video or audio file. Our experienced team will use SRT (SubRip Subtitle file) Translation software to convert the audio from your content into an SRT file. This will allow us to carry out subtitle translation that is highly accurate and timed perfectly alongside your content. Our team will then revise the translation, ensuring that all the subtitles are correct, in-context and localised.
Transcription
Transcription is another of our popular subtitle translation services. You can provide us with a transcript in a single language, or we can create one from a video or audio file. We can then translate the entire transcript into the languages of your choice. Whether it’s medical transcription services; legal transcription services; or transcribing interviews, we have translators on our books with expertise in your niche.
Files and Formats
When it comes to files and format types, the VoiceBox team is ready to adapt to your needs. While our team predominantly works with MOV, WAV, MP3 and MP4 files, we’re equally at home working with CDs, DVDs and audio cassettes. Whichever format we are provided for translation for subtitles, you’ll receive a quality service from our highly-skilled team of expert linguists.

Who are our translators?
Whether you need subtitles for a feature film, eLearning course or international advertising campaign, we know that projecting a strong brand image and offering an excellent viewer experience is business-critical.
When it comes to translating subtitles, there is so much more that needs to happen than simply substituting words from one language into another.
Our translators will consider:
- Linguistic changes between languages
- Cultural differences, nuances and traditions
- Specific pop culture connotations in the target culture
- Finding an equivalent translation for humour
- Translating complex terms and phrases correctly
- Translated subtitle timing
And more – all within the confines of two lines of 42 characters! This type of translation requires specific training and skills – linguistic, practical and technological.
That’s why we only work with experts who hold relevant translation qualifications and have 5+ years of experience working on professional projects.
We vet each and every subtitle translator to ensure they meet our strict criteria, meaning our clients only receive the very highest quality subtitle translation services.
