Did you ever think that "My passwords are awesome! No one will EVER be able to figure it out!"? Well, think again.
The link shows some of the most common passwords people keep reusing. I am ashamed to say that I do use one or two of them on the list.

Some of the usual suspects include:
123456, password, abc123, xxxxxx, aaaaaa, 11111, asdfgh, qwert, zxcvbn
Here's a tip on how to make unique passwords every time:
Instead of memorizing the letters and numbers itself, try to memorize the formula. You can, for example use the website's name as part of the password.
Say that you wanted to use the password arc113 and want to create an account on Google. You can take out the vowels in Google and add the password together to get arc113ggl.
Then you can separate the letters in the name and make garc113gl. Don't forget capitals gArC113gl.
Voila!
A unique password everytime for whatever situation that needs a password.
