Pro Typing Tips
Expert advice to boost your typing speed and accuracy
Proper Posture
Maintain the right posture for comfortable typing...
Proper Posture
Sit up straight with your feet flat on the floor. Position your keyboard so your elbows form a 90-degree angle. Keep your wrists straight and slightly elevated above the keyboard. This reduces strain and allows for faster, more comfortable typing over long periods.
Finger Positioning
Learn the correct finger placement on the keyboard...
Finger Positioning
Place your fingers on the home row (ASDF for left hand, JKL; for right hand). Each finger is responsible for specific keys. Your thumbs should rest on the space bar. This "touch typing" technique allows you to type without looking at the keyboard, dramatically increasing your speed over time.
Regular Practice
Consistency is key to improving typing speed...
Regular Practice
Practice for 15-30 minutes daily rather than several hours once a week. Focus on accuracy first, then gradually increase your speed. Use varied texts to practice different letter combinations. Track your progress to stay motivated and identify areas for improvement.
Focus on Accuracy
Prioritize accuracy over speed initially...
Focus on Accuracy
It's better to type slowly and accurately than to rush and make mistakes. Errors slow you down as you have to go back and correct them. As you build muscle memory with accurate typing, your speed will naturally increase. Remember: "Slow is smooth, smooth is fast."

FAQ
Answers to common questions
WPM stands for Words Per Minute and measures typing speed. It's calculated by dividing the number of characters typed (including spaces) by 5 (the average word length) and then dividing by the time taken in minutes. Our system also factors in accuracy by subtracting errors from the final WPM score.
Regular practice is key to improving typing speed. Start by focusing on accuracy rather than speed, use proper finger positioning (touch typing), and gradually increase your pace as you become more comfortable. Practice for short periods daily rather than long sessions infrequently.
The average typing speed is around 40 WPM, with professional typists reaching 65-75 WPM. Speeds above 80 WPM are considered excellent. However, what's "good" depends on your specific needs. For most office work, 50-60 WPM with high accuracy is sufficient, while data entry specialists and transcriptionists may need higher speeds.
