  • Use secure Password Safe software. This is like a wallet for all your passwords, which is, itself, protected by one password.
  • Use an easy-to-remember phrase, and take the first letter of each word as the password (preferably mixing in some letters and numbers and symbols). For example remembering your password is as easy as singing your favourite song.
  • Use a combination of 4 everyday but unrelated words - it makes a long password, that is easy to remember but very hard to guess
  • Use a standard personal password (based on either of the two previous options) and then have a standard way to make it different for each web site. For example, add the name or an abbreviation of the site or URL to the end of your personal password to make a longer password that is different for every site.
