Not at all. It's actually one of the worst possible ideas relating to passwords.

Why do you say that?

There's no way that any of those password evaluating sites would know what site(s) that you use that password on or even if you were using it at all.

Yes, there is. It's called browser fingerprinting, and accounts have been hacked before using this method.

I guess that this is not a good result.
Quote:Your browser fingerprint appears to be unique among the 6,035,946 tested so far.

Currently, we estimate that your browser has a fingerprint that conveys at least 22.53 bits of identifying information.

Most of my passwords are probably 11 characters long or more.

All of my passwords use the maximum accepted character limit of the website, and can usually be something similar to "%$GEBrtudb&YVBH)%$^YV$%Vyhg643". I store all of them on an encrypted flash drive, and the crypto key is hidden somewhere very clever in my house.

Same, except my passwords have unicode in them too if the website allows it. Everyone knows hackers hate unicode
