A TXT record, as the abbreviation suggests, is a record, which keeps info in human-readable form and not code. It can be set up for a domain or a subdomain for many different purposes. Search engines, for instance, have different ways of making sure you are the owner of a certain domain name and one of them is in fact by creating a TXT record with specific text that they provide and which you should use as the record value. Exactly the same verification method is used by some analytics platforms that keep track of the traffic to your web sites as well. Of course, in this case the content of the record will be read by a robot, but it will still be in human-readable form. A TXT record is furthermore employed in case you activated the so-called SPF protection for your e-mails in order to shield them from being forged. In this case, the record contains info showing that a given electronic message is sent from a dependable and authorized mail server. You can use a TXT record for any other information also, like your business details, for example.
