TXT is a DNS record, containing data in human-readable form for external sources to gain information about a specific Internet domain or subdomain. In the most common scenario, this type of record is used to prove that you own a domain in case you're trying to add it to an online search engine or to some web traffic analytics platform. Since only the domain address owner/administrator may add custom DNS records, the TXT record works as a verification of ownership for the firm providing the service. Another popular use for this kind of records is the e-mail SPF (Sender Policy Framework) protection, which helps to ensure that an email address will not be spoofed and that individuals will not get junk e-mail from allegedly your mailbox. The TXT record includes information about the mail server where your digital messages come from and functions as proof that it is a dependable one. As there are no restrictions concerning the content of such a record, you could also include any other info also.
