Reading Speed & Comprehension

The average adult reads at approximately 200 to 250 words per minute (WPM) on screens. For oral presentations, keynotes, or podcast scripts, conversational speaking cadence ranges from 130 to 150 WPM.

Articles between 1,200 and 2,500 words tend to achieve higher dwell time and search authority when providing comprehensive coverage.
