Instructions for creating an account for WordPress
Creating an account for WordPress is very simple. You log into the WordPress dashboard. Find the Users menu and click Add New.
Fill in the required information as shown in the image above. Required information includes: Account name (Username), email address. Other things you can fill or leave as default. In the Role section, you can choose Editor or Author depending on your needs. I recommend using the Editor account to post if you move around a lot and often log in on other people’s computers.

If you use the Editor account to post, you must add some permissions to this account group. By default, the Editor group cannot upload files to WordPress.
Use a strong password for your account
In the post Instructions for creating an account for WordPress This you should pay attention to the password. If you use a password created by WordPress yourself, it’s fine. But if you enter the password yourself, remember to choose a strong password (Strong). I have mentioned this point many times. Now I’ll remind you again. A strong password is a password that must be 8 characters or more. Preferably 10 characters or more. Strong passwords include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters.

The example above is a strong password. I suggest you, you can use a sentence, verse or a piece of a song. You use the first letter of the letter as the password.
Example of creating a strong password that is easy to remember
I take the example of the song: I love your hair flying in the afternoon, which evokes nostalgia. With this verse you can generate the following password:
(A2tE2bt2cgb2n)
For words that refer to people, you use capital letters. For repeating words, you use numbers and letters. Add special characters at the beginning and end. So you have a strong password. To test Strong Password then you can go to the page Password Strength Checker let’s see.
