A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, which is associated with an Internet domain as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most frequent use of a TXT record is to add your website to an Internet search engine or to an analytics platform, which provides information about the targeted traffic to your web site. Setting up this kind of a record serves as confirmation that you're the Internet domain owner and they will supply the content that you ought to include as the value when you create the record. Another application of a TXT record is to verify that an email message is sent by the domain name owner and from a reliable hosting server - this is the so-called SPF security, that helps prevent any electronic address set up under your domain name to be forged and unauthorized people to send out junk mail making it appear like it was sent from your own mailbox. You could include any other info that you'd like to be associated with your domain name in a TXT record as well.
