Password best practices

What this solves

Weak passwords are a common cause of hacked accounts. This guide gives simple best practices.

Strong passwords

Use at least 12 characters; mix letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid dictionary words and personal info. Use a unique password for each service (Client Area, cPanel, WordPress, email).

Password manager

Use a password manager to generate and store strong passwords. You only need to remember one master password.

2FA

Enable two-factor authentication on the Client Area and, if available, on cPanel and WordPress. See our 2FA article.

Tip: Change passwords after any suspicion of compromise, and don’t reuse passwords across sites.
