Farmville Strategy Guide - Some Tips for the Novice Farmer

When playing games online you should always treat them the same way you would treat console games, PC games etc. This is especially true with strategy and simulation games and having a Farmville strategy guide is a good idea. Since the game itself runs in real time you would be wasting a lot of time and effort if you make the wrong choices.

There are so many different items and so many different things to do that it is very easy to make mistakes and before you know it you bought so many decorations that you now have no money for crops, animals and trees. It could take awhile to get make those coins to plant more seeds or worse, you may have to pay for more coins. Here are a few tips to get you started on the right track.

Join a Farmville Group

These groups are primarily used to add friends and neighbors. Most have a thread where you can add your e-mail address and people send you invites. The reason for this is because you earn coins and gain experience when visiting their farm. You can also send them gifts and hopefully they reward you with a gift from them.

Create a separate feed for your Farmville friends

Facebook gives you the opportunity to set up multiple friend lists and therefore you can generate a separate news feed for your Farmville friends only. The advantage to this is most, if not all, of your Farmville friends will post when they level up or "find" a rare animal on their farm. The feed makes it easier to grab these bonuses and animals.

Use All the Space For Crops in the Beginning

There's no need to bother with decorations when starting out. You want to level up quickly and save your coins. There are plenty of levels and there are much better gifts to unlock on later levels.

Remember to spend your cash and coins wisely. You can run out fast and be stuck with nothing and it's always a good idea to check out some guides, Squidoo and blogs to get some tips and learn new tricks. Farmville is going to be around for awhile and will continue to grow. Happy farming!
