TXT is a DNS record, that contains data in human-readable form for external sources to obtain information regarding a specific Internet domain or subdomain. In the most common scenario, this sort of record is employed to prove that you own a domain name if you're trying to add it to an Internet search engine or to some web traffic analytics platform. Due to the fact that just the domain owner/administrator is able to add custom DNS records, the TXT record serves as a verification of ownership for the firm providing the service. Another popular use for this type of records is the email SPF (Sender Policy Framework) protection, which makes sure that an email address shall not be spoofed and that people will not receive spam from allegedly your mailbox. The TXT record includes information about the mail server where your digital messages arrive from and serves as verification that it is a trusted one. Since there are no standards regarding the content of this kind of a record, you could also include any other info as well.
