What is a good typing speed?
Normal typing speed is around 40–60 WPM. Over 70 WPM is fast, over 90 WPM is excellent. Professional transcriptionists achieve 100–120 WPM. The world record exceeds 200 WPM. Touch typing is the most efficient way to improve speed — practicing 15–30 minutes daily shows results within weeks.
