What speed should I use?
220 words per minute works for most adults.
Which speed is right for my audience?
Use 180 wpm for technical content aimed at experts who read carefully. Use 220 wpm for general business copy, blogs and marketing pages. Use 280 wpm for informal content, newsletters and social posts that scan quickly. The right speed reflects how your actual readers consume the content.
