Recommended Reads: Hall of Famer, Profit from Profession Guides, Tella’s 78k Gold in a Week
Posted on 2010 under WoW Gold Tips | No Comment3 Jan
I follow nearly every World of Warcraft gold blog on the internet (about 35 active gold blogs), from little blogs with 4 subscribers to the larger ones with 3,000+.
With anything in life I believe it is important to get different perspectives on a topic that may make you realize things you have been overlooking. I value this information as when I am reading someone else’s take on a certain market they are in it gives me so many ideas on how to improve upon it or integrate it into my methods.
Friday is usually the day that links are shared (known as #followfriday or #ff on twitter) so here are a few reads I found useful this week on my RSS list, be sure to check them out and leave comments where you can contribute something useful or thank the author if you liked it. Be sure to subscribe to their RSS if their blog helped you (note: None of these blogs contacted me, this is really my own recommendations from my daily reading):
1) WoWEcon – Hall of Fame: Bloodbank of Executus-US
WoWEcon has a regular series on their blog where they interview players who have hit the gold cap. The players share how they did it and talk about lessons learned along the way. I really enjoy reading how each one of them hit the cap.
2) Profitting From Profession Leveling Guides
WoWStability reminds us that there is money to be made off of players using popular profession power leveling guides. Supply the market with those items at high prices as they will most likely be in demand but no longer farmed (low supply). This is an area I have talked about before with cooking powerleveling items and hope to cover in more depth across all professions.
Remember, it must be worth your time to go farm the items, find out your gold/hour ratio for each item and only keep restocking those items on the AH that sell at your “rate”. Otherwise you’d rather be doing your regular gold making activities or dailies if the rate drops below 300g/hour.
The amount of gold Tella amasses in a week just astounds me; 78,000g in one week! However it is pointed out that this amount is gained by selling off the stockpiled items that were bought before 3.3 hit. Dealing with these kind of numbers though really raises expectations on your own gold making numbers and I think that is important to “think big” so you raise your goals and hit thousand of gold a day in profits rather than hundreds. It can be done!
Feel free to share any other useful gold related reads you may have found recently across the interwebs in the comments.
