A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that is associated with a domain address as a DNS record for one purpose or other. The most common use of a TXT record is to add your site to a search engine or to an analytics platform, which provides information about the targeted traffic to your web site. Creating such a record works as verification that you are the domain name owner and they will supply the content you need to include as the value when you create the record. Another application of a TXT record is to verify 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 prevents any electronic address created under your domain name 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 you want to be associated with your Internet domain in a TXT record as well.
