A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that's associated with an Internet domain as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most typical use of a TXT record is to add your web site to an online search engine or to an analytics platform, which offers information about the targeted traffic to your web site. Creating this type of a record can serve as verification that you're the domain name owner and they'll provide the content you need to include as the value when you create the record. Another application of a TXT record is to confirm that an e mail message is sent by the domain address owner and from a trusted server - this is the so-called SPF security, which helps prevent any electronic address set up under your domain to be forged and unauthorized individuals to send out unsolicited mail making it appear like it was sent from your own mailbox. You may include any other info that you'd like to be associated with your Internet domain in a TXT record as well.
