Choosing a Good Password

The next password no-no is using the same password for EVERYTHING so that even though your password is strong the security of your site is only as secure as the other sites you use your password with PLUS you have multiplied the number of opportunities for your password to be uncovered.

Trying to remember the multiple pin numbers, and passwords you have for everything can become a real trial and you may start out with good intentions and create perfect highly encrypted passwords – only to forget what they were on the second time of using.

Help is at hand and there are password generators as well as companies that will generate and save your passwords for you, try these links for more details:

Creating your own password

However If you are not technically minded and want a more memorable way of creating a password, please see the OneHourSiteFix solution below:

01

Make a decision which letter you will make as a capital and keep that for all your passwords – so for example you could always make the letter ‘e’ uppercase or alternatively always make the fifth letter a capital.

02

Choose a unique character to include with every password (<>?,./”!@#$%^&*()=+)

03

Take a combination from the table below (in no particular order):

Describing Word
Noun
Number
Colour /
size /
emotion /
etc.
Animal /
flower /
car brand /
Country /
State /
etc.
Favourite sum /
The age you got married /
number of children or pets /
etc.

By using this formula the following passwords can be created (please do not use these examples!! – it is the act of making them which makes them memorable and unique to you)

Original

Blue monkey

Happy lavender
