A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that's associated with an Internet domain as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most popular use of a TXT record is to add your site to an online search engine or to an analytics platform, that provides information about the targeted traffic to your web site. Setting up such a record may serve as proof that you are the domain address owner and they will provide the content you should include as the value when you set up the record. Another use of a TXT record is to verify that an e mail message is sent by the domain address owner and from a reliable web server - this is the so-called SPF protection, which helps prevent any electronic address set up under your domain to be forged and unauthorized people to send out junk e-mail making it look like it was sent from your own mailbox. You could add any other information that you would like to be associated with your domain name in a TXT record as well.
