This WoW Enchanting guide will show you the fastest and easiest way how to level your Enchanting skill up from 1 to 450. Updated for WoW patch 3.2

In my Enchanting guide I only use recipes that acquired through trainers or vendors. There is a lot of world drop recipes, but this guide won't list all of them. You will spend a lot of gold on this profession if you want to buy every materials from the Auction House. It depends on the realm economy, but from 350-450 it can cost up to thousands of gold. From 1-350 you can't really sell any enchants, because the good enchants starts from skill 350.

Enchanting really goes well with Tailoring, if you level Tailoring and Enchanting at the same time, you can disenchant most of the cloths you make, but it's good with any other crafting profession. Check out my WoW Tailoring Guide if you want to level Tailoring.

If you are low on gold, I recommend you to try this Gold Making Guide, it can help you to make loads of gold. You also need to realize this is not a leveling guide, so if you are looking for a leveling guide, the best one is this 1 - 80 Leveling Guide

If you are not 80 yet, and you are leveling your character then you can try to sell enchants at 1-350, but if you are level 80 I don't recommend doing it, since it will be really slow leveling this profession yelling at Orgrimmar: WTE 1 Stamina Bracer!!!!.
