I don't make money unfortunately.
I'm level 15 and only have about 5k gold. Every 2 levels I make a whole new set of armor and enchant every piece. Some of the enchants I make myself, but most of them I purchase from the enchanting vendor, and they are quite expensive.
In WoW I was a pro at making money. I was like Bill Gates rich.
I haven't figured it out in ESO yet.
Regardless I like ESO a million times more than WoW.
Like others have said, your best bet is to just harvest materials and sell them to the NPC stores. Luckily you can make enough money this way to afford bank/bag upgrades.

And the vast majority of players will not be able to craft everything...even the ones that can will not be able to for a very very long time (years).The real question that noone has asked is, why do you need money? Other than your horse and repair bills, money doesn't really have any real uses.
It's not "necessary" in the sense that having a car in real life is not "necessary"...but most people still want one. Because it makes life easier and more convenient.
