Primary Email .
Primary Email is those Email which you use for to sign up into Facebook . Yes this plays an important role in to secure Facebook account .Well here are some Tips you can use while creating any Email account .
Things to do while creating any Email account but before starting this i have a question for you ? Have you ever notice when you create any account it ask you to enter any Security Question . Yes . So what you have to do is , when you see that security question choose any question like " what is your nick name , what is your pet name etc . " So in the Security answer don't Fill correct answer .
Reason why to enter wrong security answer ?
The reason is when you forget your password you try to recover it , at that time you Face Security question . Well suppose your Security Question is " What is your nick name " and you entered the correct answer at the time of creating an account . Well what will happen . Suppose i am your Friend i will try to recover your Email account and when i encounter with your Security question i will fill your Correct answer and bingo now i can change your Email password without the knowledge of yours and because this is your Primary email , your Facebook is in DANGER .
So Whenever you choose your security question , fill the incorrect answer , so that no one can guess it . Suppose your nick name is " nannu " and you choose a security question " what is your nick name " while entering your answer don't fill your Correct answer instead of enter anything else .
and Remember what you entered in security answer so that you can use this answer when you have to recover your Account . I guess now you understand the importance of Security Question .

Strong Password .
Belive it or not but Strong Password is the best security tool now days . Whenever you create your Gmail or Facebook account choose an Strong Password . Don't be lazy . Choose a long and tricky password so that other one cant guess it . I posted an article some days before on Strong Password . Choose strong or Long password on your both Primary Email and on Facebook Account .
I already explained about security answer on Primary Email section , But still if you have any query about this section please ask me in Comment section below .
Secure Browsing
Make this your habit , always surf on secure browsing . Well go to your
Facebook Account setting -- Security -- Enable Secure Browsing .
and if you login your Facebook account on any cyber cafe or any other place and you forget to logout your account then go again on security setting and click on Active Session and click on the END session . your account will automatically logout from there .
you are done . well your account is now 50 percent safe .

Trusted People
Don't trust any stranger guy , Well most of the people add strangers on Facebook and they start to giving their Personal information to them . Guys you don't know but you are hitting your leg on hammer . Remember what i teach you in Primary Email section ? Yes if anyone will get to know about you then there is more chances that they can guess your password or your security answer . that was the another reason i told you to use Incorrect answer instead of correct .
My Advice : Stop Adding Random People on Facebook is you really don't want to loose your account .
Malicious software or tools .
Don't run any unknown Software or tool on your computer it might be keylogger . Keylogger is actually an tool which track your all key strokes and send them to the person who created that keylogger . I personally Recommend you to use an Good Antivirus because if your antivirus is running it will not allow you to run that tool . Always keep your Antivirus Up to Date .
Check the list of Good Antivirus from here .
Your Eyes .
Last but not on the least your eyes . Well if you ever see something like " Get 1000 likes on your status " or " Tool to get 1000 Likes on your Facebook Free " Then don't trust this . People ask such things to innocent people and when they run that tool , that tool was nothing but a keylogger . Yes Many people get fool by that way . So don't trust these type of tools and software .
and We will live in the world where all are selfish , if there is really an tool which allows you to get 1000 likes then why they will distribute it publicly ? Just think about it . :]
