A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, which is associated with a domain name as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most widespread use of a TXT record is to add your web site to an Internet search engine or to an analytics platform, which provides details about the traffic to your website. Setting up this kind of a record works as verification that you are the Internet domain owner and they will provide the content you should include as the value when you create the record. Another application of a TXT record is to confirm that an email message is sent by the Internet domain owner and from a trusted server - this is the so-called SPF protection, which prevents any electronic address created under your domain to be forged and unauthorized people to send junk mail making it appear like it was sent from your own mailbox. You could add any other info that you would like to be associated with your Internet domain in a TXT record as well.
