Try hauling garbage.

Courier contracts. Ones starting in highsec with 0.0 destinations are particularly lucrative.

That requires research as every market is different. That will be the best answer you will get here.

well a good start is to have a bit of a bankroll and the Level 1 industrial ship with Expanded cargo IIs
then go to the trade goods tab and look for sell orders that you can buy for less than what someone is willing to pay to buy. know how many of that item will fit per round trip and look for LOOOOOONG orders (basicaly 364 day orders)
We cant realy tell you what because 1 it depends on where your ship is now and 2 if you want to hop over multiple regions to see what you can sell for the biggest markups.
now for the bad news
some items you basicaly have to "tease" from the vendors, they only sell lots of say 54 at a time when the buy order is for 30,000 units at a time. its up to you if you want to set an auto buy order at the stations that drop the item or if you want to try something else.

Stop freaking worrying about why things the developerd did 5 years and more ago no longer make sence. |

Tradesmen are (in profitmaking) lonely wolves, donŠt expect to get much tips arround making isk in trading.
Just think on differences of prices - the only border in this case is your intelligence.
Read the boni of the tradeskills, ask if you donŠt understand something, look at the market and choose some few things and fly arround all Empire regions and calculate -> step by step you get more feeling about this.
Good luck.

I would suggest picking some items and flying to the next regions market then compare the prices, It could be as little a 2 jumps or 10 but the items will be worth moving.
Take a chance and move enough items to complete an order then fill it, If you can only part fill a buy order possibly some one may fill the rest for you. It does happen that as your moving goods the order can be filled, take a smaller profit by selling to the next best buy order even some jumps away be flexible.
Train any skills you can to reduce taxes.

Edited by: Ama Kiana on 11/03/2009 16:07:50 I like how everyone in here jumps on the guy even though NPC trade items have been so heavily nerfed that no one really uses them anymore. Giving out that precious info on how to make a few million isk/week with a T1 hauler is certianly going to hurt all of your multi-billion isk trading operations. 
To the OP:
Try out a program like Navbot (there are others, this is just the first one I could remember the name of) and go collect market dumps on trade items across several regions.

Hey Eva,
I'd be happy to give you a training course on trade routes and market manipulation for 10 million ISK.
