A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that's associated with a domain address as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most typical use of a TXT record is to add your web site to an Internet search engine or to an analytics platform, that offers information about the web traffic to your Internet site. Creating this sort of a record may serve as verification that you're the Internet domain 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 verify that an e-mail message is sent by the domain name owner and from a trusted server - this is the so-called SPF security, that prevents any electronic address set up under your domain to be forged and unauthorized individuals to send out junk e-mail making it appear like it was mailed 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.
