A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that's associated with a domain as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most typical use of a TXT record is to add your website to a search engine or to an analytics platform, which offers info about the traffic to your site. Creating this type of a record works as verification that you are the domain address owner and they'll supply 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 reliable server - this is the so-called SPF security, which helps prevent any electronic address created under your domain name to be forged and unauthorized people to send out unsolicited mail making it appear like it was sent from your own mailbox. You may include any other info which you want to be associated with your domain name in a TXT record as well.
