How to Make Gold in World of Warcraft at Early Levels

1 – Choose Skinning and either Herbalist or Miner as your professions. If you are starting as a night elf, then herbalist is the way you want to go since there are no mines in the night elf starting area. Miners tend to be a little more profitable than Herbalist. You can’t be both a Miner and Herbalist since the radar will conflict.

2 – Try to get 6 slot bags as fast as possible. Easier said than done, I know. Some might drop as loot and others can be bought from tailors.

3 – Create a second character, a mule, near the Auction House town. Early on, this is Ironforge for the Alliance, so a dwarf or gnome would be the best race. Humans and Night Elves have to do some traveling to get to Ironforge.

4 – Once your cash flow is good, you can drop one of the gathering professions for a crafting profession.

5 – Try not to buy unneeded items and skills early on. They can put a hole in your money supply. Better to save up and get the items/skills when they can be used better.
