Seven hundred characters is roughly the length of a LinkedIn post or a short report paragraph. This test is popular with content writers and social media professionals who want a benchmark grounded in their actual daily output rather than abstract typing test conditions.

How to Get the Most from This Test

Stay mentally present in the middle. The middle 200 characters of a 700-character test is where focus tends to lapse. The start has novelty; the end has motivation. The middle just requires attention — give it consciously.
This matches real social and professional content. A LinkedIn post, a Slack update, or a short report section is typically 600–800 characters. Improve your score here and you directly improve your everyday output speed.
Build in a rhythm check at word 70. Halfway through, ask: am I still relaxed? Am I reading ahead? A brief mental check at the midpoint prevents the gradual degradation that affects most typists in the second half.
Don't restart after one mistake. At 140 words, one error is a rounding error. Keep going. The habit of restarting over a single mistake produces worse results than accepting the occasional error and finishing cleanly.
Improve here by improving your worst words, not your best. After a 700-character test, recall which words cost you hesitations. Practice those 5–10 words specifically before your next attempt.
