The Undermine Journal - This resource is great! You plug in your faction and realm and you can see at a glance what great deals are currently available for you on your local Auction House
The Consortium - If you want to see where some of the greatest minds in the gold making community hang out, stop by the forums here. (especially the professions and auction house sub forums)
Elvinelol - One of my favorite members of not only the gold making community, but the wow community as a whole. Phenomenal forums with some extremely indepth tips and trick for the transmog market. If you've ever got a spare moment, see if you can catch him on Twitch. It's always a blast in his channel.
Phat Lewts - A great gold blogger who always has interesting ideas and questions for the community.
Just My Two Copper - When I first started really wanted to dip my toe into making gold, I loved reading JMTC. This was one of the first big sites with indepth info on how to make gold, now there are a lot of guest bloggers featured here, who still come up with some great new ideas.
Gold Capped (WoW Insider) - I try to visit WoWInsider everyday. They have a great little community built around the sight with some terrific bloggers. Though the site is mainly a general WoW community blog there are a lot of interesting articles and ideas kicked around throughout the blog that spark tons of new gold making ideas. I personally enjoy any article by ShadesoGrey or Matt Rossi in particular.
Power Word: Gold - Jim has some great YouTube tutorials and videos. He's got a fun personality and can teach anyone the ins and outs of TSM.
/r/woweconomy/ and /r/WoWGoldMaking/ - These are a couple little fantastic little Reddit Communities that are always around to help you with advice or answer a few questions.
Ashayo and ElJeppy - Exquisite podcasters formally of the amazing Aprillian's CtrlAltWoW and now hosts of the WoWGeekly podcast. While these two don't focus on gold making per se they do always have unique views and occasional out of the box tips on how to add a few extra gold to your own coffers.
Wowhead - the best resource around for general WoW knowledge. Need to know where something drops, who drops it, what it does. Visit Perculia's Wowhead!
Ctrl Alt WoW - As I mentioned before this podcast's true focus is on community and the individual WoW player. Aprillian has brought to the WoW community in general a unique perspective that fosters love and acceptance better than any other community I have seen. While not a true gold making resource there is usually 2 or 3 tips that will help you play better or give you a different perspective on how to play per episode, not to mention you'll always be in a better mood by the end of the podcast!
The Instance - Scott Johnson's baby, if not the first, this is the biggest World of Warcraft community established. He really gave the community a voice and a reason to stay together no mater what part of life you're in, in game or out of game. Every episode has a touch of polish and professionalism that is unheard of in free entertainment. His creative and entertaining views, opinions and discourses along with the always funny Turpster and hearthpro Dills always will have a huge place in the WoW community. This podcast doesnt focus on gold making, but most of the foundation of the WoW community these days is thanks to this show and the always talented Scott Johnson.
Press Y Podcast - Relatively new on the wow podcasting scene, the lovely and talented Remedeez along with hilarious and always knowledgeable sidekicks kageofhell and dunlock are truly a refreshing, honest and sincere blessing to the WoW community. This podcast is going through some changes and I look forward to whatever content these 3 continue to bring.
Realm Maintenance - This years WoW community MVP Rho has brought the semi splintered wow community together in a way that no one previously had. Through hard work and dedication Rho presents all aspects of the wow community in a fresh light consistently every week.
Your WoW Money - I personally just started listening to this podcast a few weeks ago, and am really enjoying listening to Lady Havah and Kero on their weekly gold making adventures.
All Things Azeroth - Another big staple in the community. I only a few months ago started listening to ATA, but have enjoyed every episode. It's always exciting to hear what Medros will say next, and of course how Rho will take it. The give and take between these two really makes the show.
Azeroth Roundtable - Ben and Jon are so full of energy and new ideas. They don't mind bringing up controversial topics and really threshing out new ideas and solutions for problems and issues in WoW. No matter the topic they'll make you interested!
Olivia Grace and the Gamebreakertv Nation - Still new to these guys, but the few episodes I've seen are very entertaining and great to have on in the background while slogging through those long nights in the Auction House.
TradeChat - The cutest and most energetic source of happy positive WoW energy around. If you haven't watched an episode of her show you are missing out!
Nobbel - Nothing to do with gold making at all, but if you'd like to have any idea what is going on in the story behind the world you're making money in, listen to him.
Necroxis - Another great WoW story teller who loves to bring up controversial subjects and ideas. His rants are a must see along with the lore of course!
MMO Champion - Great source of data mined info. If you want to get a sneak peak at stuff before it's announced or released go visit them!
NevAH - A fairly new gold blogger, to myself at least, but I love getting her gold idea updates in my email!
Convert To Raid - (In the deep sultry voice of Koltrane) Fortune Cookie Say... You should listen to them!
Alright, I know that's a ton of info to throw at you at once, but since it's Thanksgiving weekend, I wanted to say thanks to all these wonderful resources. Every link or person mentioned on this page is truly a blessing to this community. Each one of them at some point in time has made me laugh, smile, play or at least think differently and all of them have a special place in my heart. I know I haven't listed all the people I want to, but this list would go on for days, and I'm sure as soon as I press publish I'll remember 30 more. So with that in mind I just wanted to say to all the people on this list, and all the people that are reading this, Thank you. I appreciate you. You're awesome and super special and the world wouldn't be the same without you. So like I always say,
I love you little gold goblins and gnomes.
Until tomorrow
~ Turbos
