How to Improve Your Credit Score:
Pay your bills on time. Paying late or letting something go to collection can have a major negative impact on your credit score. If you have missed payments, get current and stay current. The longer you pay your bills on time, the better your credit score. Be aware, however, that paying off a collection account or bringing an account current will not remove it from your credit report.
Keep balances low on "revolving credit." Using more than 30 percent of your available credit on your credit cards brings down your credit score. This applies to individual accounts and when you add up all of your available credit and compare it to how much you are using on any given day during the billing cycle.
Pay off debt rather than moving it around. The most effective way to improve your credit score is by paying down your revolving credit.
Don't close unused credit cards. Closing accounts might sound like a great short-term strategy to raise your score, but it's not. This will close the gap between your outstanding debt (the amount of credit you are using) and the total amount available. Instead, use a clear strategy to close accounts, but only as it will not impact the gap between what you owe and the amount of credit available.
Don't open new accounts. More credit might seem wise in order to increase your available credit ratio, but it will be seen as a negative to your score. New or "young," accounts are not useful in credit scoring because they dilute your average account age. Unless it's a dire emergency, do not open new credit accounts.
Work on longevity. Make sure you maintain your oldest accounts. A great deal of weight is given to longevity, so the oldest account you have is the most valuable.
As with a lot of things in life, time is the best "healer." Do the right thing by managing your finances responsibly and your credit score will take care of itself.
