Bunch of advice
You will find a bunch of advice here, which do not fit any other part of this guide, but can be very helpful for beginners.
After running the game take a look at the bar above the game window. If you pass all steps listed there, you'll become a dedicated Farmer. Although you get nothing for doing that, it binds you with a game even tighter. Details:
Step 1 (Install FarmVille) - the first run of the game, you've already done this
Step 2 (Get timely updates) - sign in to the newsletter so you'll be informed about important news through your mail (you'll get reward gift for this).
Step 3 (Find your way back) - add the FarmVille to your browser Favorites
Step 4 (Get exclusive offers) - become FarmVille fan
Step 5 (Publish faster) - you agree to get game news directly to your Facebook board
Farm Cash is a special currency which you get in most cases in exchange for real money (optional), so any free form of getting Farm Cash banknotes is very tempting. We will talk about finance in FarmVille later, but if you are interested in getting free 10 FC (Farm Cash), please take a closer look at official FarmVille toolbar for your browser.
Sometimes you can see this advertisement screen when the game is loading, but you can also install the plug-in by yourself. Just go to the FarmVille main page (http://www.farmville.com/) and locate a Game Bar link on the left site (you have to be logged in in order to do that). Follow instructions and 10 Farm Cash will be added to your gifts next time you visit your farm.
Coins are the second, more common game currency. Of course, at the beginning, you're not Richie Rich and have to be very careful when it comes to finances. But despite that, if you're just starting virtual farmer's life, you can go on a shopping spree. This is because when you spend almost all money, the game will give you another 300 coins for free. Obviously, it works only once.
This advice seems to be applied to more advanced farms, but it is also very useful for people who value their time. In order to milk a cow or plow the plot, our avatar has to go to the desired place first, what takes some time. But if you want to act faster you have to lock it in the starting position. The most popular items for doing that are Hay Bales from Decorations section at the Market. They are cheap and you need just 4 of them to lock your avatar. This ensures that every action will be taken immediately.
