Some businesses need a custom RSS solution.  They may need special applications or server-side solutions that only a custom application can offer.

Some ways to know if you need custom RSS:

• You don’t need a blog, but need an RSS feed
• You need behind-the-firewall security
• You have a static page but need to have it scraped and have an RSS feed created
• You want to integrate a database or other application into your RSS
• Your want to make the RSS seamlessly integrate into a custom application you are currently using
