Does encrypting plain-text data multiple times using different passwords provide a greater level of security?

If so, what encryption algorithm would be best for such a use? Would it be beneficial to use different algorithms for each iteration?

I also had an idea to use 1 algorithm if the password starts with A-N and another if the password starts with O-Z. Is something like this beneficial?
