I would like to know how useful is Idea Bank(http://hubpages.com/my/ideabank)? How many are using this. Are these ideas really giving good results?
Yes, they do work in that they are good phrases for traffic/earnings, but you need to get in there quick when the new ideas are posted. If several hubs have already been written using the phrase and they are good quality, it's not usually worth writing another hub.
I am confused on what to write here. Does Idea Bank work if I write them?
Most of those ideas are short string, I occassionally use it but incorporate the phrases in a longer string title.
eg. 'Gold Pen' is on there now.
I would consider writing the hubs 'Best Gold Pen', 'Cheap Gold Pen', 'Solid Gold Pen', 'Luxury Gold Pen', 'Buy Gold Pen', 'Where To Buy A Gold Pen', 'Buy Luxury Gold Pen', etc etc.
Those ideas are generally best used to inspire you, rather than as complete hub titles.
Best idea is you should analyze your idea bank kw with the google kw tool.
When i discovered the idea bank a few months after joining HP, i picked on a topic, expanded on it, kind of like what Ryan mentioned above.
Worked really well for me, as i've built many hubs around those short string words.

Has the idea bank been retired? I often used it for inspiration for hubs but lately it hasn't been working for me.

Sometimes it can get a little tense around here with so many discussions and people disagreeing on so much. I wanted to start a post that I hope will remain positive--a "Pay it Forward" post. Write about another Hubber that you admire for one reason or another. Let that...

Sifting through old forums, I found several references to hubs about the hubpages idea bank. Is it still in existence, and if so, where can I find it?
