Simple & FREE Password Management
If you are an SEO or multi-domain webmaster – or even just a social site junky, chances are password management is driving you crazy. If you use more than one computer, accessing your stored passwords can be a real PITA.
In less than 5 minutes, that can all change. Here is a step-by-step guide to setting up a permanent, flexible, and secure password management solution:
Step 1: Download KeePass. Choose the Portable KeePass 2.xx version.
Step 2: Extract to a directory of your choosing. Then run it – you may want to create a desktop or taskbar shortcut.
Step 3: Enter a master account password – choose something new, this is the one password you will ever need to know from now on. Add one entry (the key icon).
Step 4: This is the powerful step that allows you to access your passwords from all machines and anywhere you happen to be. Choose file > save as > save to URL. Enter your ftp details.
Even if you don’t have a server, your ISP likely has given you some space to store a personal page or files. If you don’t know your ftp details, contact your ISP or network administrator. ** Choose an easy to remember location.
How it works: Whenever you open KeePass it will access the file on your server. Whenever you save the file it will upload the newest save to the server. From now on, from any machine, your passwords will be updated in real time and you will always have the latest passwords! If you are on a new computer – just download KeePass again, then file > open > open URL.
