A TXT record, as the abbreviation suggests, is a record, which contains information in human-readable form and not code. It could be created for a domain name or a subdomain for many different purposes. Search engines like Yahoo, for instance, have different ways of verifying that you are the owner of a given domain and one of them is in fact by creating a TXT record with certain text that they provide and that you will need to use as the record value. The exact same verification method is employed by some analytics platforms that check the traffic to your Internet sites as well. Needless to say, in this case the content of the record will be read by a robot, but it'll still be in human-readable form. A TXT record is furthermore used in case you activated the so-called SPF protection for your email addresses in order to prevent them from being forged. In this situation, the record contains info showing that a certain digital message is sent from a reliable and authorized mail server. You could use a TXT record for any type of other information as well, like your company details, for example.
