Skinning and Mining 

World of Warcraft Professions

Skinning and mining are great professions to start a new character with. There will be tons of animals for skinning and plenty of mines to mine as you are questing. If you don't do this, it's like throwing your gold away. Sell the hides you obtained from skinning using the auction house. Find out which one is selling for more gold on your server by checking the AH.

Get Your Bags ASAP! 

More Space=More Gold

Your first gold should be used to increase the amount you can carry by buying more backpacks. You want to be able to loot and sell everything. Without the extra bags, you will fill up fast and have to waste time running back to town to sell. It's pretty hard to farm gold in WoW when your bags are always full.

Save Your Gold! 

Wait until later levels to purchase new weapons and armor. You can get by without spending all your gold on overpriced low level items on the Auction House.

Make do with what you get from quest rewards and mob drops and save your gold. You will not notice much of a difference at the low levels anyways

Quests 

DO IT!

Accept every quest available to you and make sure you complete them all. If the quest reward is of no use to you, you can always sell it to a vendor. This also helps with leveling and reputation.

The only exceptions would be quests that require a group, such as instance quests. If you can get in a good group, fine, but don't waste too much time looking for one. If you can get a high level player to run your group through an instance, this is a good opportunity for some gold farming.

Auction House 

AH Buyout - Use it!

When listing items in the AH, always use a buyout. A lot of people are impatient and do not want to bid and wait around for the auction to expire. If the buyout is reasonable, they will use it.
