The speed of typing makes a huge difference in your time and productivity. So it’s very important that you should improve your typing speed.

Ultimately your typing speed won’t be faster very soon, it needs practice and consistency. However, if you speed up the learning process and maintain some tips and tricks, you can learn and increase your typing speed in a short period of time.
Learn the best ways; here I am going to tell you some of them:

#1. Start By Learning Touch Typing

This is the most important thing to consider while typing. Make a habit of touch typing that means type without looking at your keyboard. Put the fingers according to the rule and move it around the keyboard so well that you don’t even have to look.
Initially, it will be difficult and you can type wrong words but later it will be a habit. This trick is beneficial for your speed because your fingers will already know exactly where to press on the keyboard. It’s not about not looking it’s about typing fast or increase speed typing.
To be more habituated of this trick you can play games from Typeshala. Online typing sites also help you for making habit of this.


#2. Type First, Correct Mistakes Later

Using the above trick can cause you lots of misspellings and accuracy. When you type in speed you end up missing letters in the words. You press lots of wrong keys by accident. It’s actually ok.
To solve this problem, you type it first and correct it later. You can use extra tools to correct like Grammarly of the Chrome Extension.

This tip will increase your typing speed. First, it will prevent you to enter backspaces often, you can focus on your writing continuously which will maintain your flow. Secondly, it will be a quick process to complete your task.
It’s not always about typing fast though in writing flow of the writing makes it better. Consistent flow is the key to good writing.

#3. Play the right kind of music

Once you get used to typing with the above tricks, there will be one major bottleneck in your typing speed your ability to think. If you practice enough, it will get to the point you want to press where you cannot think fast enough. That is your hand will type faster than you think.

I’ve personally found that one of the best ways to improve thinking ability while you are typing any think is the right kind of music.
Music that has the correct rhythm and sound can help you. Music with lots of words and meaning can distract you There are genres like Lo-Fi, jazz, and other classical music that is best to listen while typing.

Obviously, everybody is differnt and there is a different style for anyone. Some may have different choices of music than I have suggested.

#4. Purchase a More suitable keyboard

The first thing many people would always say to buy you a fancy mechanical keyboard. Its well known for fast response times through a mechanical keyboard-you really feel each key is pressed and you can move on to the next one very fast and easy.

I do agree that mechanical keyboard is faster but this should be the only reason one should thong that you have mastered the touch typing or you type the faster. I better consider if you had your own laptop or keyboard that helps you to type faster.
Once you feel confident you can type faster.

Conclusion

I have recommended some tips and tricks for you to type faster. But don’t rush and it is a practice that will definitely make you PRO one day. Keep working and as a final note, I would like to say make a better habit of typing with typing touch habits and keep consistency.
