A TXT record, as the abbreviation implies, is a record, that holds data in human-readable form and not code. It could be set up for a domain address or a subdomain for various purposes. Search engines like Google, for example, have different ways of making sure that you are the owner of a particular domain and one of them is by creating a TXT record with certain text which they provide and that you need to use as the record value. The very same verification method is being employed by some analytics platforms that monitor the traffic to your websites as well. However, in this case the content of the record is going to be read by a robot, but it will still be in human-readable form. A TXT record is also employed if you activated the so-called SPF protection for your e-mails so that you can prevent them from being forged. In cases like this, the record contains information showing that a certain digital message is sent from a reliable and authorized mail server. You can use a TXT record for any type of other information also, just like your business details, for instance.
