How do you store your passwords?
-
I have seen many solutions and tried most of them. But when serving multiple companies the amount of passwords one has gets astounding. It is hard to find a way to securely store them, but also have the convienence of looking them up.
What solutions do you recommend?
-
Yes, you can add tags like I do to sort out business vs personal ones!
-
Since LastPass (www.LastPass.com) acquired XMarks, I've become a raving fan of LastPass -- it works across multiple computers, on my iPhone and iPad, and helps me to create unique/impossible passwords for all sites. Love it.

I've been using roboform for years... I have at least a hundred passwords sroted, and catorgized by website. I'm not affilitated with them in any way (except being a happy customer). I will say, if you try a free trial, I guarantee you'll love it!
They just came out with a subscription model ($10/ year) that allows you to use your logins on any computer/ device.
PS. I also buy it for some of my customers, to make my job easier

I use clipperz.com. It also does one-click logins!

Looks like it checks out, does it have the ability to organize passwords by company or profile?
-
I know that it can sound weird, but when it comes to passwords I usually use a combination of domain name + a alfanumeric code of 6 caracters that - like the numbers code in Lost - I remember since sooo many years.

I absolutely adore 1Password (http://agilewebsolutions.com/onepassword), which has been a long-time Mac utility, but they recently released a Windows version. Not only do I store all my usernames and passwords in 1Password, I also use it for software license keys, rewards membership programs, and more.
They also support the iPhone and iPad, which makes all of this information availability on the go.

Hi Spencer:
I use an open source product calledKeePass. It's a tiny program that resides on my flash drive. Very easy to use, and access can be password protected or you can use a physical "key" that resides on the flash drive itself (my choice as the drive never leaves my desk.
I can't imagine going back to the piece of paper method and having to manually type the characters in now. I just copy and paste and in seconds I'm in.

I know its a very lo-fi solution, but I use a black moleskine notebook (pacman edition to be more precise) I carry around all the time.

Bigcommerce only allows us to have https for our store only, not the other pages on our site, so we have a mix of https and http, how is this hurting us and what's the best way to fix?
So we aren't interested in paying a thousand dollars a month just to have https when we feel it's the only selling point of that package, so we have https for our store and the rest of the site blogs and all are http. I'm wondering if this would count as duplicate content or give us some other unforeseen penalty due to the half way approach of https being implemented. If this is hurting us, what would you recommend as a solution?

URL Path to Store Article Library for SEO
What is the best URL structure for a domain to start adding a main directory for educational articles under? We want to find the best URL structure to keep articles under as a main, then category, then subcategory: For example, if my client is going after TWO SPECIFIC KEYWORD PHRASES as their primary (let's say they are KIDNEY DIALYSIS and CKD DIALYSIS, should they start building up their article library (for educational purposes as well as ranking/SEO), should they list it under which structure for the best SEO ranking opportunities: domain.com/KIDNEY-DIALYSIS/article1, article2, article3 domain.com/CKD-DIALYSIS/article1, article2, article3 domain.com/ARTICLES/article1, article2, article3 Both KIDNEY DIALYSIS and CKD DIALYSIS are critical phrases for them. Is it a waste of URL space to just have a home of domain.com/ARTICLES then build off that URL structure like: domain.com/articles/kidney-dialysis domain.com/articles/ckd-dialysis Thoughts? Ideas? Thank you!

Product Descriptions for Localized eCommerce Store
Hi, We currently have an eCommerce store that only sells in one country. We are going to open separate stores that will target different countries. As far as product descriptions go my initial plan was to use the same descriptions but then block product pages from being indexed. However this has also ended up blocking us from being able to use Google's product listing ads (it rejects the data feed due to not being able to index the products). Is there a way to copy the descriptions and avoid a delicate content issues without blocking our product pages from being indexed? Thanks for your help!

Where does Wordpress store the 301 redirects?
Hi, I've just created a campaign for my new wordpress blog and found 11 301 redirects which I was not aware of. It looks like wordpress has created them automatically. Does any one know how wordpress handles this issues or where are they stored so I can delete them? They are of no use for me. 9 of these redirects point to the same url with an added '/' and are in pages 1 is on a post. I've been changing the permalink and some urls several times and maybe one of these times the Wordpress has automatically created the 301 redirect. But why? I do not want to keep the old url. the last redirect is very strange it goes from http://www.mydomain.com/folder to http://www.mydomain.com where folder is the folder where I installed wordpress. But again, I want no one to type the url with the folder name or even know this folder exists. Any comment on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot, David

How do I add a blog to a subdirectory of a volusion store?
Based on what I've read so far, the best blog URL for SEO purposes is a subfolder (www.example.com/blog) rather than a subdomain (blog.example.com). I am having a lot of trouble adding a blog to our e-commerce store which is hosted by volusion. I have looked into installing Wordpress into a subdirectory but apparently Volusion does not allow the mysql/myphpadmin/database access needed to successfully do this. I have also looked into trying to publish my blog through ftp using Blogger, but they stopped allowing this a while ago. Does anyone know a way to add a blog to my volusion store's subdirectory? Thanks
