Amherst, MA (PRWEB) January 19, 2004 --Accelerize New Media announced today the launch of EDGAR Index(tm), a subscription-based service providing notification of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) EDGAR(r) Filings via customizable RSS feeds.

EDGAR Index offers a powerful set of online tools for creating RSS feeds, allowing users to customize SEC Filing Alerts by Company, Industry, and Open Text Search Terms. These feeds can then be retrieved using any news aggregator software. Users can create an unlimited number of feeds for personal use.

"RSS is an extremely efficient medium for distribution of syndicated content" said Chris Meredith, President of Accelerize New Media. "Not only does EDGAR Index allows anyone with news aggregator software to receive notification of SEC filings in near real-time (seconds to minutes), the filings are automatically sorted by feed, creating an organized, permanent archive. That's a real advantage over email-based alert services where the alerts can get lost in the 'email shuffle' and have no inherent management or archiving capabilities."

EDGAR Index feeds include the name of the filing company, the form type that was filed, the date the filing was accepted by the SEC, and a link to the actual filing stored on the SEC server.

SEC Filings contain a wealth of information about the financial and organizational well-being of an organization. Institutional and private investors, day-traders, journalists, competitive intelligence researchers, students and anyone who needs to stay on top of current financial information can benefit from timely notification of SEC Filings via EDGAR Index feeds.

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is an XML format standard for content syndication. A news aggregator is a software program that periodically retrieves RSS feeds and displays the feed contents on a single page.

Pricing and Availability
EDGAR Index subscription service is available immediately at http://www.edgarindex.com Pricing is $4.95/month per user for unlimited custom feeds.
