Investing some time in typing skills?

As you all know, mylot is a site paying you for posting stuff. What I'm getting at here is that if you can type faster equals faster earnings. But getting your word per minute up to 120 can be challenging. As I'm typing this I am also watching House M.D. My WPM now is barely 30. So what do you think guys? Is it worth it to improve your typing skills?

I would say that it is certainly worth improving your typing skills because it is a life skill and eventually when you start working, chances are typing speed can help to speed up your work. In MyLot, your quality of post and the speed you think matters as well.

Sure, if you can type faster you can earn more so improving your skills would be beneficial to you. Also, stop watching House while you're supposed to be typing.

I dont know I guess if you can afford to pay the prices thats ok but I found that practise really worked just as well and I can type 90 WPM when im not watching tv lol and thats simply from practising and typing every day

if you really are focused on earning, you really need to type fast & to respond to a lot of discussions as fast as you could. not to mention referrals, too. but for me, i am really not concerned in how my i earn here. i just want to have a past time to clear my mind about work before going to rest. earnings are just bonuses for me.

surely if you can increase your typing speed then you are sure to do much more work on the computer in less of time and i consider time very valuable. I would suggest that instead of going for a paid class try out numerous computer games which are free to download and have figures which guide you regarding typing and it would be good enough to help you out. The thing you need to invest is time. Hope you make up for a good speed and accomplish more.

yes my friend i also think that it is a good idea to learn the typing better because now a days a lot of things are integrated on computer and so it is always nice to have a good typing speed.
