Never forget your passwords again! Wouldn’t that be great? With this simple formula, you can do it.

It’s so simple, so secure, and easy to remember.

Follow the steps below for a simple way to create passwords for you and your family.

The first thing you want to do to create a secure password is to make up a sentence that you can easily remember.  How about this:

We like to read paper books at night.

Secondly, take the first letter of each word in the sentence to start your password. (In this example I replaced the word to with the number 2 and the word at with @ sign.)

Wlike to(2) read paper books at(@) night.

It looks like this:

W l 2 r p b @ n

Thirdly, think of the websites you’d like to use. Let’s try Amazon. Use the first three letters of Amazon’s name.

Your password would look like this:

Wl2rpb@nAMA

You have now created a password specifically for Amazon’s website.  So simple and so easy!

You can easily create a different password for each website you visit, making them easier to remember. Isn’t this a simple way of creating your passwords? Try it out!

 

Here’s another tip:

If you need to change your password you can do so easily by using the same sentence and placing the three letters from the website in front of your created password. Or you can change your sentence. The choice is yours, and again it should be easy to remember.
