A TXT record, as the abbreviation implies, is a record, that keeps info in human-readable form and not code. It could be created for a domain or a subdomain for a variety of purposes. Search engines like Google, for instance, have different ways of verifying that you're the owner of a certain domain and one of them is actually by creating a TXT record with unique text that they provide and that you need to use as the record value. The exact same verification method is being employed by some analytics platforms that monitor the traffic to your web sites as well.

A TXT record is additionally employed if you enable the so-called SPF protection for your e-mails in order to protect them from being forged. In this situation, the record contains data showing that a particular electronic message is sent from a trusted and authorized mail server. You can use a TXT record for any kind of other information as well, such as your company details, as an example.
