A TXT record, as the abbreviation implies, is a record, that keeps info in human-readable form and not code. It can be set up for a domain address or a subdomain for many different purposes. Search engines like Yahoo, for example, have different ways of verifying you are the owner of a certain domain and one of them is actually by creating a TXT record with unique text which they provide and that you must use as the record value. The very same verification method is employed by some analytics platforms that keep track of the traffic to your web sites as well. However, in this situation the content of the record will be read by a robot, but it'll 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 in order to shield them from being forged. In this case, the record contains information showing that a particular digital message is sent from a reliable and authorized mail server. You can use a TXT record for any other information as well, such as your business details, for example.
