TXT Records
Understand what TXT records are and precisely what they are utilized for in the DNS system.
A TXT record, as the abbreviation indicates, is a record, which keeps data in human-readable form and not code. It can be set up for a domain address or a subdomain for a variety of purposes. Search engines like Yahoo, for instance, have different ways of confirming that you're the owner of a certain domain name and one of them is actually by creating a TXT record with unique text which they provide and which you must use as the record value. Exactly the same verification method is employed by some analytics platforms that monitor the traffic to your websites as well. Of course, 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 if you activated the so-called SPF protection for your e-mails in order to prevent them from being forged. In this case, the record contains information showing that a particular electronic message is sent from a trusted and authorized mail server. You may use a TXT record for any type of other information as well, just like your company details, for instance.
