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 widespread use of a TXT record is to add your site to a search engine or to an analytics platform, that offers information about the web traffic to your website. Setting up this type of a record can serve as confirmation that you're the domain owner and they will provide the content you should 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 address owner and from a trusted web server - this is the so-called SPF protection, which prevents any electronic address set up under your domain to be forged and unauthorized individuals to send junk e-mail making it look like it was sent from your own mailbox. You may include any other information that you'd like to be associated with your domain in a TXT record as well.
