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 another. The most popular use of a TXT record is to add your web site to an Internet search engine or to an analytics platform, which offers information about the targeted traffic to your site. Creating this sort of a record serves as verification that you're the domain address 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 validate that an e-mail message is sent by the domain name owner and from a reliable hosting server - this is the so-called SPF protection, which prevents any electronic address created under your domain name to be forged and unauthorized people to send spam making it appear like it was mailed from your own mailbox. You may include any other info that you'd like to be associated with your domain name in a TXT record as well.
