...and make sure they're strong.
Listen, I know it's tempting to use the same "super secure inside joke password" for every account, but reusing a password is the most dangerous thing you can do for your online privacy. If you can only take one thing away from this article, let it be this: do not use the same password.
The secret to crafting a strong password? Make it long. Write a sentence, then replace random letters with numbers and other characters. If you're having trouble coming up with something you can remember, use a password manager like LastPass, 1Password, or Dashlane to generate random strings.
You can also try creating a "recipe" system. Start with a basic password and use elements of the website (like "A" for amazon). Incorporate that identifier into each site's specific password. Password Chef ($3, iOS) is an app that can help you create the recipe and the resulting password.
