One of the best ways to make money in World of Warcraft has always been skinning. So many products require hides that there’s always a shortage of the more popular ones. Even so, to get the most benefit from the situation, you need to know what you’re doing. The Warcraft Tycoon’s Handbook can tell you what you need to know to turn skinning into an exciting way to make lots of gold fast.

Skinning got even more interesting with the release of Wrath of the Lich King (WotLK). That’s because that release introduced several new types of skins, including the super valuable Arctic Fur. But even regular old Borean or Azeroth leathers are worth a lot if you know your business.

You need to answer a few basic questions before simply setting out to slaughter and skin anything that crosses your path. You need to know:

Accumulating gold can seem impossible when you are running a new WoW character. But yours doesn’t have to be poor. With the right knowledge, you can make relatively large amounts of gold even as a low-level character.

The secret to making money (in WoW or anywhere else) is understanding the core forces that drive the economy. The most important dynamic in WoW is that nobody wants to be a low-level character. Everyone is in a rush to make it to the higher levels as fast as they can. You can take advantage of this.

This situation is a lot like the California Gold Rush. Most people were in a rush to strike it rich. Each one of them needed certain things to help them reach their goal as fast as possible. The huge demand for key resources drove prices sky high.
