Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about TypeCheetah and typing speed tests.
What is a good typing speed?
Average is ~40 WPM. 60-80 WPM is considered proficient. Professional typists typically reach 80-100+ WPM. In TypeCheetah, hitting 100+ WPM earns you the legendary Legend Cheetah rank!
How is WPM calculated?
Correctly typed characters ÷ 5 (standard word length), normalized per minute. TypeCheetah uses a rolling 3-second window for real-time accuracy and a smoothed average for your final score.
How can I improve my typing speed?
Practice regularly! Focus on accuracy first — speed follows naturally. Use all 10 fingers with proper touch-typing technique and keep your eyes on the screen, not the keyboard.
