Making gold in Wow, the easy way.

So you're wanting to make some gold in WoW?  Well I'll give you some tips free of charge.

Some of the stuff that I am going to go over is covered in the gold guides as they are just providing you with imformation that is available to anyone that can think.

The best professions to get to make money easy and fast are the Gathering Prof's.  These would be Herbalism, Mining and Skinning.  Although fishing is also regarded as gathering it is a secondary prof that anyone can learn but people still buy the fish to help level up cooking.

In regards to gathering the best 2 are Herbalism and Mining.  The reason is simple. There are 3 prof's that rely on Mining and 2 that rely on Herbalism.  This means that you are supplying mats for 5 professions giving you a bigger selling market to work with.

You can get these prof's at level 5 and from there you can make some nice gold as you level.  In the begining depending on your market stacks of copper ore, peacebloom and silverleaf will sell for about 50s - 2g  a stack however when you go higher the stacks will start selling for more. 

I would suggest getting Auctioneer addon as this can help you see what the market is like.  Help you undercut the competition and keep track of prices. You can post mutiple listings with just one click instead of one at a time as wow's AH interface works.

I would also suggest keep all the Linen cloth and especially the wool cloth, put all this in the AH. Wool cloth is used to get rep with individual cities and can sell for 5-9g in the AH depending on how flooded it is.

Any green items that drop that your class can't use should go into the AH, with auctioneer you will have a rough idea on what the base price should be and depending how many are in there you can gauge on if you should mark it up from there or drop it.

For those wanting help in where to go to get your profession skills up I would suggest Wow Professions web site.  Easy to use and shows the easiest and cheapest way to level all the prof's.
