Efficent Enchantment Skill-up

Question

What is the most cost-effective way to increase enchantment? it seems too expensive to buy materials from vendors, and finding soul gems that have souls in them takes a while.

Answer

These are all the ways to gain experience for enchanting:

• Disenchanting items
• Enchanting items
• Using Soulgems to recharge weapons (Soul Siphon does not count) *Needs verification

Personally the method I use is the one suggested in the wiki, which is to craft iron daggers, and then using petty soulgems to enchant them with a low level enchantment, and selling the daggers back to the shopkeeper.

This allows you to improve three skills at the same time: smithing, enchanting, and speech. The amount you make selling the enchanted items offsets the cost of buying the materials.

Just grab/buy every low level soulgem you come across and you'll level up enchanting in no time. Having a soul trap weapon will make this process much easier.
