Firstly, I have tried just about every major leveling guide: Zygor’s, Dugi’s, iDemise, Jame’s (lso TourGuide-based). I’m going to be very honest. There is VERY LITTLE difference between any of the guides. In most cases, the same quests are done in more or less the same order. For people to claim that one version is far better than another is quite an exaggeration.
I signed up for both Dugi and Zygor guides. So let’s begin with Zygor’s guide.
Zygor’s guide.
The Zygor’s guide is very beginner friendly. I love how the quest path is divided into mini-guides which pretty much stand on their own. The flexibility this offers is one of the things that put this guide over the top. Zygor guides focus on quests that bring the most experience to your character. Leaving out all those junk quests blizzard adds to keep you playing the game for as long as possible. The guide claimed that you can climb from level 1 to 80 within 7 days. I found it to be an hour or 2 shorter than that, which is very impressive.
However, the bad thing is it didn't automatically detect what quests my character had done, as was advertised. The guide seems very linear and it was not clear where to start following the recommended path. Anyway, recently I read that there actually is some mechanism (SIS) to detect where you should be, but that has to be set up correctly so I though it better be good if I checked out a testimonial forum. Apparently lots of people are having troubles with a mechanism which, in an effort to keep you on pace with the guide path, is causing quests to be dropped or skipped. Sometimes these quests are important. This, along with other "issues" mentioned by Zygor users are cause for concern.
It cost you around 40$ and for me the bonuses are pretty useless.
Anyway, Zygor gives a free 1-13 guide away as a trial; you can download and try there guides for free, and if you like it you have the option to buy the rest of the guide.

Dugi’s Ultimate WoW Guide.
After talking with my friends and I told him to try Zygor’s. He said he already has, but is no longer using it and recommended me to go try Dugi's Ultimate WOW Guide.
Later that evening I went to visit the website to see what this guide is all about, I ended up buying the same day. I am using this guide for months and really great! I wonder how fast this guide leveled my character and I also made tons of gold. As I said, it is a little different between the two guides. Here is why I think Dugi’s is better than Zygor’s Guide
Dugi’s is faster and easier. While Zygor’s just read and read what the next step should be done. I though that I have more reading then playing. Also I make more gold with Dugi’s guide. In my opinion, Dugi’s guide is not just a fast leveling guide. It covers almost tips and tactics you need to know, bringing out undiscovered stuff all time. Plus
the service is excellent, if I ever do have any questions or problems, Dugi responds quickly to answer or fix the issue, really good.
The bonus is quite impressive, at least better than I got from Zygor’s but I will not discuss about that here. If you want to know more please check out the official website.
Dugi also gives a free 1-40 guide away as a trial while Zygor does 1-13 the last time I checked. If you use the 1-40 trial and then you buy the full guide, you can skip straight to level 40 with Dugi’s full guide. See more detail in Dugi’s website.
