Check the heatmap after each run. It usually shows one or two digits, often 6 and 7 or 1 and 0, causing most of the errors.
Frequently asked questions
Should I use the number row or number pad?
Both are fine here. The number pad is faster for long runs of digits; the number row is better when numbers are mixed with words.
How is WPM calculated?
Words per minute counts every 5 correctly typed characters, including spaces, as one word, divided by the minutes elapsed. Raw WPM counts every keystroke, right or wrong. Accuracy is the share of keystrokes that were correct, so mistakes still count even if you fix them.
Is WPMTrack free and private?
Yes. Every test, lesson and certificate is free with no account. Your results and history are stored only in this browser and are never uploaded.
What does consistency mean?
Consistency measures how steady your speed was from second to second. 100% means you typed at exactly the same pace the whole time; lower numbers mean bursts and pauses.
