Using a strong password for all of your online accounts is vital to keeping your account information safe.  Simply put, the passwords that many generate on their own and want to use are too easily cracked by hackers.  Usually this is due to the use of passwords such as 1234567, password, a word that is important to them, a relatives name, etc.  The use of these passwords are extremely easy to hack and should be avoided even if the website you are using allows you to enter them.

The standard requirement for many major websites now is the use of a mix of uppercase and lowercase characters with the addition of some numbers and special characters such as !, *, $ and so on.  If you’re like us, coming up with a password like this uses brain power that we would prefer to use on something else.  So, we created the password generator below.

To use it, simply select the length of the password.  We wouldn’t recommend anything less than 10 characters in length, but it will depend upon the website you’re generating it for.  After you select the password length, choose any other options you need or desire.  Then click submit.  The site will display a randomly generated and strong password for you to use.  But remember, a strong password is never a guarantee your account will never be hacked, but it will definitely help make it safer.
