A TXT record, as the abbreviation indicates, is a record, which keeps information in human-readable form and not code. It could be created for a domain name or a subdomain for various purposes. Search engines like Google, for instance, have different ways of making sure you're the owner of a certain domain name and one of them is by creating a TXT record with certain text that they provide and which you must use as the record value. The very same verification method is being employed by some analytics platforms that monitor the traffic to your sites as well. Needless to say, in this situation 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 additionally used in case you enable the so-called SPF protection for your emails in order to protect them from being forged. In this situation, the record contains data showing that a particular electronic message is sent from a trusted and authorized mail server. You may use a TXT record for any kind of other information as well, such as your company details, for instance.
