A TXT record, as the abbreviation indicates, is a record, which keeps data in human-readable form and not code. It may be set up for a domain address or a subdomain for a number of purposes. Search engines, for example, have different ways of making sure you're the owner of a given domain and one of them is by creating a TXT record with specific text which they provide and which you must use as the record value. The same verification method is used by some analytics platforms that check the traffic to your web 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 additionally used in case you enable the so-called SPF protection for your emails so that you can prevent them from being forged. In this case, the record contains info showing that a particular digital message is sent from a trusted and authorized mail server. You may use a TXT record for any sort of other information also, just like your company details, as an example.

As our Hepsia Control Panel is incredibly intuitive, you'll use a point & click interface and you can set up the new record in a matter of seconds. This is accomplished using the DNS Records section of Hepsia in which you can handle all records for your domains and creating a new TXT record requires selecting an Internet domain or a subdomain and "TXT" from drop-down menus and typing the actual text in a box - it is as basic as that. It takes only a couple of minutes for the new record to become active and to propagate, so if you need it to validate an Internet site with some search engine, for example, you can ask them to check your website soon after you've created the record and you should be all set.
