Make your own elemental runes (air, water, fire, and earth) (This skill is called runecrafting. Runecrafting can make you over 500k per hour at high levels.), or buy from mage stores or other players. Or, you can use staffs, but you can only hold one, so choose the staff that replaces the most expensive runes in a spell (if you are casting a spell that requires 3 fire runes, 4 air runes, and 1 law rune, you might choose to use a fire staff as the fire runes cost more in total than the air runes do, even though there is 1 fewer).
Find a place to practice your mage level; somewhere that you can hide (if monsters have the ability to chase you) and somewhere that other players won't "steal" and take over fighting the same monster you are. Good examples include: Polypore Dungeon (east of Duel Arena, members only) Mage Training Arena Edgeville Dungeon (hill giants) Karamja volcano (lesser demons)
Find monsters that are within the same or higher combat level as you. Don't waste runes and/or time on chickens, rats, or ducks unless you have a Level 3 character. Be aware that the higher combat level a monster is, the more runes you would need to kill it.
Use law runes in an efficient manner. Unless you have a lot of GP to buy law runes (or a very high runecrafting level) it's not recommended to use laws as a method to get your mage level up. If you're saving GP or laws, just walk from place to place.
Use caution when going into the Wilderness. Even players with a few combat levels lower than someone else can kill them; what the person wears, their prayer level, mage level, and what spell they use on their victim are all factors.
Save nature runes for alchemy spells, specifically high level alchemy. With some items, you may be able to turn a profit by buying off the Grand Exchange and alching them. However, these items are few and far between.
