Alliance: How to make gold at low levels for Mining & Herbalism

Making gold with mining and herbalism are the two easiest ways of earning gold while your character is still at the lower levels. Selling ore and herbs on the Auction House is a good way to get a nice amount of gold as you are leveling up. It is still useful to farm gold like this even on higher levels. I would advice that you download the Gatherer addon which will track all of your discovered ores and herbs so you don’t have to roam around trying to remember where a vein or a herb was on the map.
