A TXT record, as the abbreviation implies, is a record, which contains info in human-readable form and not code. It could be created for a domain or a subdomain for various purposes. Search engines like Google, for example, have different ways of making sure that you are the owner of a given domain name and one of them is in fact by creating a TXT record with specific text which they provide and that you must use as the record value. The exact same verification method is used by some analytics platforms that monitor the traffic to your web sites as well. Of course, in this 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 employed in case you enable the so-called SPF protection for your emails so that you can protect them from being forged. In this case, the record contains info showing that a certain digital message is sent from a trusted and authorized mail server. You can use a TXT record for any sort of other information as well, like your business details, as an example.
