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