A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that is associated with a domain as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most typical use of a TXT record is to add your web site to a search engine or to an analytics platform, which provides information about the targeted traffic to your site. Creating this sort of a record works as confirmation that you're the domain name owner and they'll provide the content that you ought to 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 Internet domain owner and from a trusted hosting server - this is the so-called SPF protection, that helps prevent any electronic address created under your domain to be forged and unauthorized people to send junk e-mail making it appear like it was mailed from your own mailbox. You could add any other info which you want to be associated with your domain address in a TXT record as well.
