TXT is a DNS record, containing information in human-readable form for external sources to obtain information regarding a particular Internet domain or subdomain. In the most common case, this type of record is used to prove that you own a domain name if you are trying to add it to an online search engine or to some web traffic analytics platform. Since just the domain name owner/administrator is able to add custom DNS records, the TXT record serves as a proof of ownership for the business providing the service. Another popular use for this sort of records is the e-mail SPF (Sender Policy Framework) protection, which helps to ensure that an e-mail address won't be spoofed and that people will not get unsolicited mail from allegedly your mailbox. The TXT record features info about the mail server where your electronic messages arrive from and functions as proof that it is a dependable one. Since there are no rules regarding the content of this sort of a record, you could add any other information as well.
