TXT Record

A DNS record used for verification, email authentication (SPF/DKIM/DMARC), and other text data.

A TXT record is a DNS record that stores text information for a domain. TXT records are commonly used for domain verification (proving ownership to services like Google Search Console), SPF records (email sender authorization), DKIM keys (email signing), and DMARC policies. Multiple TXT records can coexist on a domain.
