How To Get Gold in The WoW (Legal&Hack-free) Part VI

HERBALISM / INSCRIPTION
Another pair of professions to get gold is Herbalism and Inscription. We have talked about Herbalism before, and now we will talk a little about inscription and how to make gold with it.
The bonus skill of Inscription is that it allows you to make shoulder enchants on yourself when its at 450, so it doesnt really matter what race/class you are to pick this one.
Inscription allows you to make scrolls, armor and weapon vellums and Glyphs.
You basicly gather herbs with Herbalism, mild them with inscription and use the inks you get with milding to scribe. So you will have to gather every single herb you encounter while levelling. Very much like all the other professions, inscription gives its best profit when its 450 but it also allows you to make gold during the skilling process.
To level inscription from 1-450 the fastest way, you can visit wow-professions.com and search for a inscription levelling guide. The best guides are in that site! 
Coming to the important parts of this profession: Making gold.
Inscription basicly profits from the Glyphs, but not all glyphs cost good in the Auction House.
Instead of making every glyph you can, focus more on the glyhps people will HAVE to buy. For example Minor Glyphs which are about “your [skill] no longer costs a reagent” will definitely sell well on the AH. Mages dont like gathering Light Feather for Slow Fall ability, or Shamans dont like buying Ankhs for their Reincarnation abilities so they will definitely buy those minor glyhps.
As major glyphs, you should focus on the glyphs which class/specs should Definitely have to be a good Tank/DPS/Healer. To figure what these glyphs are, you can search Wowwiki for the best spec talent builds with glyphs and focus on making those to sell at the Auction House.
Another part of inscription which makes gold is the armor and weapon vellums. Those vellums allow enchanters to scribe an enchant on the scroll and sell them on the Auction House instead of trading the mats and enchanting them personally. So its basicly easier for enchanters and they will buy those vellums on the auction house.
You can make a certain amount of vellums, sell them on the auction house and make gold of it. Of course like all the other professions you will have to farm some herbs in order to craft goods to sell, and again for Herbalism, you can use the materials you need, and sell the rest on the auction house.
Herbalism Tips: At 450, the best selling herbs on the Auction House are Lichbloom, Frost Lotus, and Icethorn since they are used to make flasks by alchemists, and Crystallized Life can be sold for good prices on the auction house as well. But of course as Eternal Life.
Keep an eye out for the crystallized life you get from herbs, convert them into Eternal Life’s and sell them on the auction house as well. Eternal Life is used by various other professions such as Alchemy to transmute gems.
Basicly: Focus on the commonly used Glyphs, sell them on the AH, Gather herbs, sell those you dont need, and sell Eternal Life’s on the auction house!
