Speed Typing Test — How to Improve Your WPM
What you have: a live words-per-minute test that measures speed and accuracy as you type — calculated locally, so nothing you type is ever uploaded.
Three rules for faster typing
- Accuracy first, speed second. At 98% accuracy, correcting errors costs more time than slow typing does.
- Home row always. Fingers return to A-S-D-F / J-K-L-; after every reach — that's what makes speed repeatable.
- Look at the screen, not your hands. Touch typing is muscle memory; looking resets it.
