A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, that is associated with a domain as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most typical use of a TXT record is to add your web site to an online search engine or to an analytics platform, which provides information about the web traffic to your website. Creating this type of a record can serve as verification that you're the domain name owner and they'll provide the content you need to include as the value when you create the record. Another purpose of a TXT record is to confirm that an email message is sent by the domain address owner and from a trusted server - this is the so-called SPF security, which prevents any electronic address created under your domain to be forged and unauthorized people to send out junk mail making it look like it was mailed from your own mailbox. You may include any other info you want to be associated with your domain address in a TXT record as well.

TXT Records in Shared Hosting

Our custom Hepsia CP allows you to handle the DNS records of every Internet domain or subdomain accommodated within a shared hosting account without difficulty, so if you would 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 it. Through a very user-friendly point-and-click interface, you will only have to choose one of your domain names or subdomains from a drop-down menu, choose TXT for the type from a second menu, then type in the actual content inside a box. This is done inside the DNS Records section of Hepsia and very soon after you are all set, the new record is going to be functioning. If you'd like to confirm your site with Google, for instance, you'll just need to log in to your account with them several minutes later and ask them to check your Internet domain or subdomain. It doesn't take more time for a TXT record to go live if you require it for any other reason.
