Everyone has experienced it. You’ve hit one of the landmark levels and you don’t have enough gold for whatever mount you were after, or you just hit the level cap and you’re stuck with your lame leveling gear because you can’t afford an upgrade. What you need are some quick WoW gold secrets to make sure that you don’t find yourself in that situation again!

1. Don’t stop looting until your bags are full. Seriously, this is one of the most common mistakes among newbies. If you can sell it, pick it up. If you have no room in your bags, run, don’t walk, to the nearest merchant and vendor what you’ve got. Put greens, blues, and purples up on the auction house and vendor everything else, then watch the gold roll in. Don’t skimp on bags either, you’d be surprised how much of a difference 2 extra slots per bag can make.

2. When you’re picking your quest rewards, if there’s nothing you can use, either pick plate armor or a weapon. If you have the time, check out WoWHead and see what each quest item sells for. In both Northrend and Outland you can make a ton of gold just selling quest rewards to vendors. If you’ve got multiple weapon choices, keep in mind that the bigger weapons tend to sell for more. If you’re trying to figure out which armor piece sells better, it’s usually the one in the most crucial slot.

3. Make use of gathering professions. Extensive use, in fact. With this tip alone you can net double the gold of people who don’t gather. Even just grabbing stuff on the way while you are questing or exploring is enough to give you a solid income. I’ve found mining to get the best results, but skinning and herbalism do decently as well. Taking mining and skinning together is a surefire way to keep yourself stocked on gold.

4. Instead of selling cloth in stacks, sell it by the piece. While you are at it, double the price. Now fill a few pages with your cloth pieces, and watch the sales roll in. Most players don’t bother to look ahead and try to find the full stacks, they’d rather not put the effort in. As a result of this, you get a tidy profit. You also get some extra sales from the professions that don’t need bulk orders of cloth, like engineers and blacksmiths.

5. Quest until you run out of quests, then quest some more. This is absolutely crucial for keeping the gold rolling in. There are plenty of opportunities to do quests on your way to instances or other quests, especially with the amount of daily quests in Wrath of the Lich King. Once you hit the cap, you’ve got that handy little experience to gold conversion thing too, so following this rule is kind of a no-brainer.
