A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that is associated with a domain name as a DNS record for one purpose or other. The most common use of a TXT record is to add your website to an online search engine or to an analytics platform, which offers info about the web traffic to your Internet site. Setting up this kind of a record serves as proof that you are the domain name owner and they'll 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 email message is sent by the Internet domain owner and from a reliable hosting server - this is the so-called SPF security, which prevents any electronic address set up under your domain to be forged and unauthorized people to send out junk mail making it look like it was sent from your own mailbox. You can include any other info you want to be associated with your domain address in a TXT record as well.
