1. Choose a simple but longish word, like banana, and plan to use it for all sites
2. Put the first letter of the url of the site you are visiting in front of it.
2a. Make that first letter a capital if you have to include a capital.
2b. Put your favourite number at the end if you have to include a number.
You now have unique passwords for each site that are easy to remember.
This site is: fbanana
Ravelry.com is: rbanana
Beadsareus.co.uk is: bbanana
itunes.com is: Ibanana7
Best is chosing a baseword that's a combination of words and that's not in the dictionary. Something fun is best:
bananatravel
reindeermitts
sleepswithsocks
feedsfrogs
frogwhiskers
wiskeywalzing
Don't use the same baseword for sites with vital info such as banking, 23andme and sites that can access your addressbook such as Facebook and google. For them, choose another word, perhaps unique to that site, and another number, for example the year you started using the sute.
