Frequently asked questions
What is a good WPM?
Around 40 WPM is average, 60 to 80 is fast, and above 80 is professional level; the band on this page reflects those ranges.
Is WPM the same as keystrokes?
No. WPM groups characters into five-character words, so it is lower than your raw keystrokes per minute.
How do I improve my WPM?
Build accuracy first with steady practice; speed follows once you stop making and correcting mistakes.
