TXT is a DNS record, that contains data in human-readable form for external sources to obtain information regarding a certain domain or subdomain. In the most common situation, such a record is used to prove that you own a domain name in case you are trying to add it to an Internet search engine or to some web traffic analytics platform. As just the Internet domain owner/administrator can add custom DNS records, the TXT record functions as a proof of ownership for the business supplying the service. Another popular use for this sort of records is the e-mail SPF (Sender Policy Framework) protection, that helps to ensure that a particular email address will not be spoofed and that others will not get junk e-mail from allegedly your mailbox. The TXT record features info about the mail server where your online messages originate from and serves as verification that it is a trusted one. Since there are no restrictions regarding the content of this kind of a record, you could add any other information as well.

TXT Records in Shared Web Hosting

Our in-house built Hepsia CP allows you to manage the DNS records of every domain name or subdomain accommodated in a shared web hosting account without difficulty, so if you want to create a new TXT record for any one of them, it won't take you more than only a few seconds to do that. Via a rather user-friendly point-and-click interface, you will only have to select one of your domains or subdomains from a drop-down options menu, select TXT for the type through a second menu, then type in the actual content within a box. This is done inside the DNS Records section of Hepsia and soon after you are ready, the new record will be live. If you want to confirm your web site with Google, for instance, you'll just have to log in to your account with them a couple of minutes later and ask them to check your Internet domain or subdomain. It doesn't take longer for a TXT record to go live if you want it for any other purpose.
