Good credit is built and maintained by paying bills on time and borrowing only what you can afford. Other helpful practices: keep balances low relative to your limits (low utilization), keep older accounts open, avoid opening many new accounts at once, monitor your credit reports for errors, and only take on debt you can repay.
