What a DNS TXT Record Is (Plain English)
•2 min read
TXT records look scary until you realize they are just small notes you attach to a domain.
A TXT record is a short piece of text stored in DNS.
People use TXT records to prove domain ownership (like verification), set email rules (SPF/DKIM/DMARC), and more.
Most DNS providers ask for just the Host name like _safesitescan. They automatically append your domain behind the scenes.
