How the Typing Speed Test Works
Choose your preferred test mode: timed (15, 30, 60, or 120 seconds), word count (10, 25, 50, or 100 words), or quote mode. When you start typing, the timer begins automatically. Your words per minute (WPM), accuracy percentage, and consistency are calculated in real time as you type.
After completing a test, you receive a detailed results card showing your net WPM, raw WPM, accuracy, total characters, correct and incorrect keystrokes, and a consistency score. Use these metrics to identify areas for improvement and track your progress over time.
Tips to Improve Your Typing Speed
- Use proper touch typing technique with all ten fingers on the home row.
- Focus on accuracy first — speed naturally follows with consistent practice.
- Practice daily, even for just 5 to 10 minutes, to build muscle memory.
- Try different test modes to challenge yourself with varied content.
- Use the quote mode to practice typing real sentences and punctuation.
