In the end it always comes down to supply and demand (omg RL words).
If you are lucky enough to pick up a rare recipe like Arcanite Reaper (HOOO~) or Enchant Crusader then you are literally gold.
Farming is usually a safe bet. While Herbalism can be overfarmed due to the popular combination of Herb/Alch it is still decent. Mining is also up there, especially for Thorium and it's rare gems.
While leveling you can also sell raw materials to those people that want to powerlevel their crafting professions.
At early 60 Enchanting is probably the highest demand, while Tailoring and Leatherworking might lag behind a bit. As long as the server is still on it's way to pre-BiS gear or MC I'd say any profession can be valid.
TL;DR Either focus on gathering+selling raw materials while leveling OR try to powerlevel 1 crafting profession combined with the relevant gathering profession.
