How I Increased My Typing Speed to Over 100 Words Per Minute

Typing is one of the most valuable professional skills you can develop. Whether you’re writing emails, creating content, coding, studying, or managing projects, faster typing allows you to capture ideas more efficiently and spend less time fighting the keyboard. I’m a very fast typist. Over the years, I gradually increased my typing speed to more than 100 words per minute while maintaining strong accuracy, and typing has become almost invisible to me when I’m writing. I didn’t get there because of a special keyboard or some unusual natural talent. I got there through years of touch typing, repetition, accuracy-focused practice, and gradually pushing beyond my comfortable speed. If you want to learn how to type faster on a keyboard, these are the techniques that have made the biggest difference for me.
