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 other. The most frequent use of a TXT record is to add your site to a search engine or to an analytics platform, that offers info about the targeted traffic to your Internet site. Creating such a record may serve as verification that you are the domain name owner and they will provide the content that you ought to include as the value when you set up the record. Another application of a TXT record is to verify that an e mail message is sent by the Internet domain owner and from a trusted web server - this is the so-called SPF security, which prevents any electronic address created under your domain to be forged and unauthorized people to send unsolicited mail making it appear like it was mailed from your own mailbox. You could add any other information which you want to be associated with your domain name in a TXT record as well.
