You need skinning on either making money or to your leatherworking
Tailoring is not the right profession for a hunter, its ment to be for cloth wearers like warlock and mage
But still, you gonna make alot of money by skinning and then maybe some with tailoring ;)

my profession now is skinning and tailoring
so is good and maching or perhaps support each other?
thx u fear for the answer
unlearn tailoring u will really regret it at high lvl take leathrworking/enchanting or something else matching ur classs jc/engineer could be nice too but u have no gathering skill whihc matchs them. so take lw/enchanting in place of tailor
Do not take leather working/enchanting in the early levels, you will bankrupt yourself very quickly if you do.
leather working is only manageable by a newbie if you use skinning to support it.
If you take leather working by itself, you will have to buy all your mats & that will make you very poor very quickly.
As for enchanting, it is one of the biggest gold sinks in the game & will only be profitable for you if you treat it as a gathering skill & use it to disenchant gear & sell the resulting materials.
Enchanting can make money in the late game selling enchants as well but early on disenchanting is the only way you'll see a profit from it.
As for a recommendation, I'd say go with 2 gathering professions.
examples of this are: mining/skinning, & herbalism/skinning.
The mining/herbalism combination is not recommended since both require the use of a tracking ability for finding harvest nodes & only one of the tracking abilities can be active at a time.
Using 2 gathering professions will make you good money from early game to end game.
I hope this information is helpful in your decision.

I'm a Lv.70 hunter (NE) I went LW/Skinning and went Dragonscale working. I find myself rarely using it besides for armor kits. I don't find most of the gear that i get from it useful. I would suggest going mining/Eng or Alc/Herb very good stuff and alc can make money as well. Also doing Herb/mining or skinng will make you alot of money.

I play a 63 Hunter and i have litterally tried out EVERY proffesion in the game. I landed on engineer and actually had started on it. This is not a proffesion that will make you a lot of money. Essentially it will make you none. However It is a FUN proffession. As far as going Gnome or Goblin, i went goblin. I choose goblin just because i like pvp and the bombs and trinkets can save your but in a jam. Gnome i hear is fun too. Im currently 350 engineering at 63 and cant even make the stuff i can make because the mats require lvl 70 to get (IE primal nethers and stuff) but i had so much fun with the little uses of this proffession like parachute cloaks, and other things i couldnt help from lvling it. i would go engineering but thats just me. LW and skinning, alchemy, JC, and chanting are all useful for a hunter

2 Gathering skills especially if it is your first character. Sell everything on the AH. Makes the most money.
What this guy said.
I easily rake in the gold by selling 100% of what I mine and what I skin.

Dont' ever take a production profession as a new character. Take two gathering profs - always skinning then choose between mining or herbalism. Always skinning, because trying to track mining AND herbalism is a pain.
The only reason ever to take a production profession is because it offers a Bind-On-Pickup item that you really want. Everything else you can buy with the gold you make with dual gathering professions - and come out ahead gold wise as you didnt have to buy the mats to level, the mats to make the item, and the recipe.
So, go with dual gathering, and stick with dual gathering, until level 70 and you find yourself sitting on a pile of primal nethers. Then, and *only then*, consider which production skill can offer significant epic BoP items.
