A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, which is associated with a domain name as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most popular use of a TXT record is to add your web site to an Internet search engine or to an analytics platform, which provides details about the targeted traffic to your website. Creating this kind of a record serves as proof that you're the domain address owner and they'll provide the content that you ought to include as the value when you create the record. Another application of a TXT record is to validate that an e-mail message is sent by the domain address owner and from a trusted web server - this is the so-called SPF security, that prevents any electronic address set up under your domain name to be forged and unauthorized individuals to send out junk e-mail making it look like it was sent from your own mailbox. You may include any other info that you'd like to be associated with your domain address in a TXT record as well.
