very frequently
-
never updated
-
infrequently
-
None of these
A
Correct answer
Explanation
RSS is most useful for websites that are updated very frequently, such as news sites, blogs, and content portals.

For sites that update infrequently or never, RSS provides little benefit since subscribers would rarely receive updates. Frequent updates maximize the utility of automated syndication and notification.
