A TXT record, as the abbreviation indicates, is a record, that contains info in human-readable form and not code. It could be set up for a domain name or a subdomain for many different purposes. Search engines like Google, for instance, have different ways of making sure that you are the owner of a certain domain name and one of them is actually by creating a TXT record with unique text that they provide and that you will need to use as the record value. The very same verification method is used by some analytics platforms that check the traffic to your web sites as well. Of course, in such a case the content of the record is going to be read by a robot, but it will still be in human-readable form. A TXT record is also employed if you activated the so-called SPF protection for your email addresses in order to shield them from being forged. In cases like this, the record contains info showing that a particular electronic message is sent from a dependable and authorized mail server. You could use a TXT record for any other information also, just like your company details, for instance.
