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 another. The most frequent use of a TXT record is to add your web site to an Internet search engine or to an analytics platform, that provides info about the web traffic to your site. Creating such a record works as proof that you are the Internet domain owner and they will supply the content you should include as the value when you set up the record. Another application of a TXT record is to confirm that an email message is sent by the domain owner and from a reliable hosting server - this is the so-called SPF security, which helps prevent any electronic address set up under your domain name to be forged and unauthorized people to send spam making it appear like it was sent from your own mailbox. You may include any other information which you want to be associated with your domain in a TXT record as well.
