Step 1
Visit websites like Wowwiki.com and blizzardguides.com. These websites feature gold farming guides, suggestions and tips that can be viewed in HTML via a web browser.
-
Step 2
Do not download a gold farming guide. Beware of websites that offer free downloads of gold farming guides. While most PDF files are safe, the majority of downloadable World of Warcraft downloadable guides are word documents that may carry hidden computer viruses.
-
Step 3
Beware of any pay-to-know schemes. Some websites offer gold farming guides for a small fee or offer to sell gold for another fee. The buying of gold for real life funds is against the terms of service on World of Warcraft. Blizzard can and will suspend or terminate accounts that violate this rule.
-
Step 4
Do not give your account or password information to anyone else. Be wary of gold farming guides that offer to farm the gold for you. Some people are duped into believing that if they give their account information to an address or addresses suggested by a guide, the person who created the guide will farm the gold up out of the goodness of their hearts. Never give your account and password information to anyone.
-
Step 5
Consider your account security. Blizzard's official World of Warcraft site recommends purchasing an inexpensive SecureID that protects your account even from accidentally downloaded keyloggers and viruses.
