How is WPM calculated?
WPM (Words Per Minute) counts every 5 characters as one word. We divide total correct characters by 5, then by minutes elapsed. This is the standard method used by all professional typing tests.
What is a good typing speed?
Average typing speed is 40 WPM. 60-80 WPM is considered good for most jobs. Professional typists type 80-120 WPM. Speed typing champions exceed 150 WPM.
How can I improve my typing speed?
Practice regularly with our test. Focus on accuracy first - speed comes naturally. Use all fingers and learn touch typing. Take breaks to avoid strain.
Can I use backspace to fix errors?
Yes! You can use backspace to correct mistakes. However, errors are still tracked in your statistics even after correction.
Does this work on mobile?
This test works best on desktop with a physical keyboard. Mobile virtual keyboards and autocorrect can affect accuracy. We recommend using a computer for accurate results.
