Someone accused me of being you and following them but here's how to get better. Step one: find a comfortable position to start. I see you average 10-20 wpm, which I'm assuming means you're a complete beginner. If you want to change that into 100+, then start typing with more than 1 finger. Find a comfortable position (usually home row) and layout (most use QWERTY but you can start early with easier layouts like Dvorak or Colemak). Once you get your preferred typing method, then move on to step 2: practice this position. Don't move your fingers and let them wander, or else you'll get lost on the keyboard. Assuming you use 10 fingers and QWERTY, rest your fingers on the home row with your index on f and j. Most keyboard have a bump that indicated that they are the f and j keys, so if you get lost, then find those bumps without looking and keep your eyes on the screen when typing. A good site for beginners is typing.com. Step 3: once you've learned a little bit about how to navigate with your new position, start working on accuracy by going slowly and really FOCUSING on your keys. This will help more than trying to go fast in the beginning. Don't smash your key, but try to feel that keypress and engrain it (and what finger you use to hit it) in your brain. Step 4: now that you've learned accuracy, you can learn speed or endurance (or a little of both). Try to not make any errors when you test your burst speed or when doing long sessions. Without the errors, you will start to build a flow, and soon, you can go fast and you can go for a long time. Since you say you want to go fast, try training your burst speed (monkeytype 10 word test) by focusing hard and going as fast as you can. While doing that, don't make any errors. If you start to lose focus, take a small break because you're not trying to go for endurance. Type as hard as you can for like 5 seconds and then stop and take some time to recollect. Ok that's all bye 馃憢

Ok first of all, I don't know if you even read step 2. Don't know if you speak English that well but I will emphasize one word: PRACTICE. The main idea of step 2 is to practice for around a week for a couple minutes a day. You won't master it even slightly, but you will get a good feel of the keyboard. It WILL FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE especially since you have been using the hunt-and-peck method for your entire typing career. You WILL NOT get immediate results because you will have to start from the beginning and work your way back up. However, you will have more potential to go faster if you master it.
