A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, which is associated with a domain as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most popular use of a TXT record is to add your site 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 functions as verification that you are 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 verify that an e-mail message is sent by the domain name owner and from a trusted web 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 unsolicited mail making it appear like it was mailed from your own mailbox. You can include any other information that you would like to be associated with your domain in a TXT record as well.
