I have been playing World of Warcraft for three years now and can tell you that one of the most difficult tasks early on in the game is creating wealth. It seems that when you are first starting out you are gold poor all the time. Well it wasn't long until I figured out some basic tips that quickly increased my gold wealth.

World of Warcraft Gold Making Tips

1. The first thing you need to do is acquire some bags. Be sure to have the biggest ones you can get. This is critically important because as you kill beasties, you are going to pickup tons of items. You will need all the room you can get. When you have time later, some items you will sell direct to a market vendor, others you will auction of at the auction house.

2. Pick a gathering profession or two. I like skinning and mining. Both of these allow you to make some serious gold when you auction off the leather/ores at the auction house.

3. Kill everything you can, pickup everything you find and when you are full, go sell it. Low level (grey) items are best sold to the market vendors with some exceptions. Other items, greens-blues, should be auctioned off.

4. How do you know what to auction? and for how much? Two tips...go to Thottbot and research an item. Thottbot will give you a clue as to what an item might bring at auction or if sold to a market vendor. Go to the auction house and view asking prices for items as well as quantities being listed.

These are some very basic tips, but I guarantee you all gold makers use them religiously to create wealth! If you are in need of a sweet gold making guide, then check out this review site!
