Online Typing Test



Below you’ll find a number of options for this online typing test. Most options include text from popular authors unless you are using custom text. This online typing test also includes the ability to set a time limit ranging from 1 to 10 minutes.

As you start the test, two boxes will appear. The top box is the actual text used for the typing test while the bottom box displays the text you are typing.

Once you start, you’ll notice a small pause as the system prepares the test and then the first word will appear in blue. As soon as you start typing, the system begins recording your keystrokes and highlights any typing errors you may make in red.

Once a typing error has been marked red, you can not change it. Errors are marked in red only after you press the space bar, so you can correct a letter, but not a word. True typing tests account for accuracy by not allowing words to be corrected, and this online typing test is held to the same standard.

You’ll also notice a timer located to the right that counts up to the time you have allotted for the typing test.

Results of the Online Typing Test

Results are displayed immediately after the test is completed. You’ll notice the option to enter email and contact information, many organizations use this free online typing test as a way to screen applicants and in such cases, verified results are sent to the personnel department.

If you would like your score to be entered into our online typing test Hall of Fame, but don’t want to enter your email address or name, simply enter a space in each field and click on Send Results.

    I would like to find out my typing speed for the fob that I am applying for.

  15. Dawn said:

    41 wpm – I’m sure I should be able to do much better than this, but I keep making mistakes and go back to correct them. I think my main problems is lack of concentration, also I have to look at the keyboard to see where the punctuation marks are. I show down when using the shift key too. I need a lot of practice, no doubt about that!

    Good luck to everyone trying to learn or improve their speed – you can do it! :-)

  26. Bex said:

    Hi Guys!!
    First try I got 62 WPM ……. not bad, would like to average 100 – 120 WPM by the end of the week!! Shouldn’t be too difficult, though I am faster when taking dictation as I am not so great when it comes to touch typing, meaning, having to look at text, then look at the keyboard, so all in all – 62 WPM for a hunter and pecker is not bad at all.!!!!
    Good luck to you all!!

    P.S. ……………….. Selma, I think it would be a safe bet to take the one minute test and then just average it out over five minutes using a simple equation: For example ….
    10 WPM times 5 minutes = 50 words every 5 minutes.
    62 WPM times 5 minutes = 310 words every 5 minutes so on and so forth.

  39. Linda said:

    Hi. I took 4 of the 5 minute typing tests and each time it disappears leaving a 404 Error Message but no typing speed report. Why is this happening? I went into the Find field and tried to search for the tests using today’s date (January 5, 2010) but received a message saying no search results found. What is causing this and how do I get it to stop long enough to give me my score? Please advise.
