How many online accounts do you have that require a password? If you create a strong password for each of them, how do you keep track of them & remember what they are?
One trick that a lot of people do is to use a two part password. Have one strong password that you can remember, for example @vo6022 then have something based on the domain, maybe the first letters of the domain and extension with a character between them, pdml.net could become p*n
So, your password for pdml.net would be @vo6022p*n and your password for wellsfargo would be @vo6022w*c
Someone who gets your password for multiple sites would be able to figure it out, but if someone gets your password on yahoo, they wouldn't then be successful if their script tried the same account and password on google.
