Love em or hate em, spiders can be a good source of wow gold providing you know where to find them (not really a problem) and familiar with the items they drop.
Spider Silk
The main drop of interest - especially for Tailors and Leatherworkers - is Spider Silk. This item always sells well on most servers. Just find a good concentration of spiders and grind them until you have a stack of silk. A good example are the Giant Plains Creeper of the Arathi Highlands.
Grind Em and Cook Em
Of course, spiders also drop items needed for cooking quests. When items are needed for quests, they will always be sought after and thus sell well at auction. A good example is Small Spider Legs which are required for the Alliance only quest Recipe of the kaldorei in Teldrassil which requires you gather 7 Small Spider Legs.
Another example is the drop of White Spider Meat. This is in demand from those Cooks wanting the meat for the recipe 'Spider Sausage'.
Spiders in WOTLK
With the latest expansion of Wrath of the Lich King, the latest spider silk that is in much demand is the Iceweb Spider Silk. This silk is required for everything from Epic Spellthread to Magic Carpets. A great location for the farming of Iceweb Silk is Zul'Drak where the Trapdoor Ambusher spiders lurk, especially in a small area call Heb Valok, close to the Argent Stand.
Happy Hunting!

Grinding Sporeggar Reputation
In the World of Warcraft your reputation - like a dwarfs stomach - always precedes you. The better your reputation, the more access you will have to a wider range of epic gear and mounts that only the faction quartermasters can provide. You usually need to be at least revered, or better still, exalted before a faction will let you buy its epic gear. An example is the Son's of Hodir outlined in this blog that supply the Ice Mammoth once your reach Revered.
If you haven't yet thought about gaining reputation with a particular faction, I'd urge you to reconsider as some of the quests can be great fun and eventually result in many of the daily quests so popular in the Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King.
How To Gain Reputation
There are a number of ways to gain reputation with a particular faction:
1. Complete an initial series of quests, thus gaining their favor and becoming friendly
2. Grind an opposing faction
3. Gather faction specific tokens which are redeemed for reputation points
The Sporeggar
The Sporeggar in Outlands is a good example. Here is a short video I made while in Zangermarsh. The gold making tip here is that any reputation item that is not BOP can be sold for much gold on the Auction House. The Glowcaps of the Sporeggar are a good example. Check out your own server and see what they're selling for.
Enjoy!
