Your Credit Score
Here are some tips for a healthy credit score:

- Build on a long history of on-time payments.

- Don't max out your credit lines. It's better to use part of your available credit on a few accounts than all of your available credit on just one account.

- Keep card balances low, and pay off debt rather than moving it between cards.

- Don't open or close accounts as a strategy to raise your score. Or, if you have more open credit accounts than you want, close the newest ones and keep long-standing ones open.

- When loan shopping, submit applications in a limited time. If you're shopping for a car loan, say, and visit five dealers in three weeks, those five inquiries will count as one inquiry to a potential lender looking at your report.

- Check your three credit reports, for free, once each year (one every four months) and contact the creditor and the credit bureau to correct any errors.
