A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that's associated with an Internet domain as a DNS record for one purpose or other. The most typical use of a TXT record is to add your site to an online search engine or to an analytics platform, that provides information about the targeted traffic to your website. Setting up this sort of a record works as confirmation 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 confirm that an e-mail message is sent by the domain address owner and from a trusted server - this is the so-called SPF security, that helps prevent any electronic address created under your domain to be forged and unauthorized individuals to send spam making it look like it was sent from your own mailbox. You may include any other info you want to be associated with your domain in a TXT record as well.
