A TXT record, as the abbreviation implies, is a record, that holds information in human-readable form and not code. It could be set up for a domain or a subdomain for a number of purposes. Search engines like Google, for example, have different ways of verifying you're the owner of a given domain and one of them is actually by creating a TXT record with certain text which they provide and which you will need to use as the record value. Exactly the same verification method is being employed by some analytics platforms that keep track of the traffic to your Internet sites as well. Needless to say, in such a 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 additionally employed when you activated the so-called SPF protection for your email addresses so that you can shield them from being forged. In this situation, the record contains information showing that a given digital message is sent from a dependable and authorized mail server. You could use a TXT record for any kind of other information as well, just like your business details, for instance.
