A TXT record, as the abbreviation suggests, is a record, that holds data in human-readable form and not code. It may be created for a domain address or a subdomain for many different purposes. Search engines like Google, for example, have different ways of verifying that you are the owner of a certain domain name and one of them is by creating a TXT record with specific text that they provide and which you should use as the record value. The exact same verification method is used by some analytics platforms that monitor the traffic to your sites as well. Of course, in this situation the content of the record will be read by a robot, but it will still be in human-readable form. A TXT record is additionally used in case you activated the so-called SPF protection for your e-mails so that you can prevent them from being forged. In this case, the record contains information showing that a particular electronic message is sent from a trusted and authorized mail server. You can use a TXT record for any other information also, just like your company details, for instance.
