Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good typing speed?

The average typist reaches 40–60 WPM. Professional typists and office workers often type 65–90 WPM, while top-speed typists can exceed 100 WPM.

Does accuracy affect my WPM score?

Yes. Most tests calculate net WPM, which subtracts a penalty for errors, so accuracy is just as important as raw speed.

How often should I practice to improve my typing speed?

Consistent daily practice of 15–20 minutes is more effective than occasional long sessions. Most people see measurable improvement within a few weeks.
