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 common 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 web traffic to your Internet site. Creating this kind of a record serves as proof that you are the domain name owner and they'll provide the content that you should include as the value when you create the record. Another use of a TXT record is to confirm that an e mail message is sent by the domain name owner and from a trusted server - this is the so-called SPF security, which helps prevent any electronic address created under your domain to be forged and unauthorized individuals to send out unsolicited mail making it look like it was sent from your own mailbox. You can include any other information that you'd like to be associated with your domain name in a TXT record as well.
