WOW Grinding Guide
You are probably on this page reading about WOW grinding guides for 1 of 3 possible reasons. 1) You enjoy grinding, and were looking for how to do it more efficiently, 2) You want to grind for gold, or 3) You are hoping to level your character as fast as possible, and think that grinding might be the answer. If you are here for the last reason, I strongly recommend you check out one of the in-game guides recommended on this site, as in most cases they will level you much faster than grinding ever will, and you will have more fun as well.
With that said, grinding still has its place in WOW. Some people like to watch TV, listen to music, and grind at the same time. It does have its own rhythm and it becomes hypnotic after a while. And it takes very little effort, hence it is a great activity to engage in when not all your attention is focused at the task at hand. And while I did state that using a guide will level you faster in the majority of cases, if you happen to be an experienced grinder who is familiar with AOE grinding and other grinding tactics, you will in fact level just as fast if not faster.
Grinding for Gold Only
Please visit the Gold Farming Guide page on this site for specific areas where you can farm for gold.
Grinding for Experience and Gold:
Skinning: Since you are killing a bunch of mobs over and over, you might as well make some gold while you're at it. Getting skinning as a profession is a no-brainers. You can sell what you skin for good gold at the auction house, and it will add up quickly.
Here are some grinding spots to consider.
Levels 12 - 18:
Westfall
Darkshore

Everywhere in the above zones is pretty much good for grinding. Just keep moving from target to target, and try not to stray too far from vendor areas so you can sell your junk regularly.
