Frequently asked questions
The average typing speed is around 40 WPM. A good speed for professionals is 65-75 WPM. Expert typists can reach 100+ WPM. For programmers, accuracy matters more than raw speed.
WPM is calculated by dividing the total characters typed by 5 (a standard word length) and then dividing by the elapsed time in minutes. Net WPM subtracts errors from this calculation.
Practice regularly with proper finger placement on the home row. Focus on accuracy first — speed will follow naturally. Use the programming mode to practice typing code-related words.
Raw WPM counts all keystrokes regardless of errors. Net WPM (the main score) penalizes mistakes by subtracting incorrect characters, giving a more accurate measure of effective typing speed.
