A TXT record, as the abbreviation suggests, is a record, which keeps data in human-readable form and not code. It may be set up for a domain or a subdomain for various purposes. Search engines like Yahoo, for example, have different ways of confirming that you're the owner of a particular domain name and one of them is actually by creating a TXT record with certain text which they provide and which you must use as the record value. The very same verification method is employed by some analytics platforms that monitor the traffic to your sites as well. Needless to say, in this situation the content of the record will be read by a robot, but it'll still be in human-readable form. A TXT record is additionally employed if you enable the so-called SPF protection for your emails so that you can prevent them from being forged. In this situation, the record contains data showing that a certain electronic message is sent from a reliable and authorized mail server. You could use a TXT record for any type of other information also, such as your company details, for instance.
