A TXT record, as the abbreviation suggests, is a record, that holds data in human-readable form and not code. It may be set up for a domain address or a subdomain for a variety of purposes. Search engines like Google, for example, have different ways of verifying you're the owner of a particular domain and one of them is actually by creating a TXT record with specific text which they provide and which you will need to use as the record value. The exact same verification method is employed by some analytics platforms that check the traffic to your Internet sites as well. However, in this case the content of the record is going to be read by a robot, but it'll still be in human-readable form. A TXT record is also used if you activated the so-called SPF protection for your emails in order to shield them from being forged. In such a case, the record contains info showing that a certain electronic message is sent from a trusted and authorized mail server. You can use a TXT record for any other information also, such as your business details, as an example.
