A TXT record, as the abbreviation suggests, is a record, which keeps data in human-readable form and not code. It can be created for a domain name or a subdomain for a number of purposes. Search engines like Yahoo, for instance, have different ways of verifying that you are the owner of a certain domain name and one of them is actually by creating a TXT record with specific text which they provide and which you must use as the record value. Exactly the same verification method is being employed by some analytics platforms that check the traffic to your websites as well. Needless to say, in such a case 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 when you activated the so-called SPF protection for your emails so that you can prevent them from being forged. In cases like this, the record contains info showing that a particular digital message is sent from a trusted and authorized mail server. You can use a TXT record for any kind of other information also, such as your business details, for example.
