Frequently asked questions
How is WPM calculated?
Words per minute counts the characters in correctly typed words, including spaces, divided by five (the standard word length) and by the minutes taken. Raw WPM counts everything you typed, mistakes included.
What is a good typing speed?
Around 40 WPM is average for adults, 60+ is fast, and professional typists often exceed 80 WPM with high accuracy.
How can I type faster?
Focus on accuracy first, keep your fingers on the home row, and look at the screen rather than the keyboard. Short daily practice beats occasional long sessions.
