Frequently asked questions

What is a good typing speed?

The average is about 40 WPM. 60 to 80 WPM is fast, and professional typists reach 80 to 100 or more. Accuracy matters as much as speed.

How is WPM calculated?

One word is counted as five characters, including spaces. Your WPM is the number of correct characters divided by five, divided by the minutes taken.

Do mistakes lower my score?

Errors reduce your accuracy, and they can also lower your effective speed. Slow down slightly to type cleanly, since fixing mistakes costs more time than typing carefully.

How can I improve my typing speed?

Practise a little each day, look at the screen instead of the keys, and use all ten fingers. Accuracy first, then speed, is the habit that works best.
