Typing Speed Test
Typing Speed Test is a free online typing test for a quick break. Choose 15, 30 or 60 seconds of words, short quotes or numbers, then type as fast and accurately as you can to see your WPM (words per minute), accuracy and a speed-over-time chart. Rank yourself from Beginner to Expert, beat your personal best, take the same daily test as everyone else, or race friends in a room.
How to play
- Pick a mode and a time, then tap Start.
- Type the highlighted word and press space for the next one; Backspace fixes mistakes.
- When the time is up, check your net WPM, accuracy and chart, then go again.
Tips
- Look one word ahead and keep a steady rhythm.
- Fix mistakes with Backspace, because net WPM only counts correct characters.
- Accuracy first; speed follows.
Questions
How is WPM worked out?
5 characters count as one word. Net WPM counts only correct characters, and gross WPM counts everything typed.
What is a good typing speed?
About 40 WPM is typical for adults, 60+ is fast and 80+ is expert. These are rough ranges, not percentiles.
How does the daily test work?
Everyone gets the same words for the day, and your score is net WPM x accuracy.
