A TXT record is text in free, human-readable form, which is associated with an Internet domain as a DNS record for one purpose or another. The most typical use of a TXT record is to add your site to a search engine or to an analytics platform, which offers information about the traffic to your web site. Setting up this type of a record functions as proof that you are the domain name owner and they will provide the content you need to include as the value when you set up the record. Another application of a TXT record is to confirm that an email message is sent by the domain name owner and from a reliable server - this is the so-called SPF security, which helps prevent any electronic address created under your domain to be forged and unauthorized people to send junk e-mail making it appear like it was sent from your own mailbox. You may include any other information that you'd like to be associated with your domain in a TXT record as well.
TXT Records in Shared Hosting
Our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel allows you to manage the DNS records of every domain address or subdomain accommodated within a shared hosting account easily, so if you want to create a new TXT record for any of them, it will not take you more than only a few seconds to do it. Through a rather user-friendly point-and-click interface, you'll simply have to choose one of your Internet domain names or subdomains from a drop-down options menu, pick TXT for the type through a second menu, and type in the actual content inside a box. This is done in the DNS Records section of Hepsia and soon after you are ready, the new record is going to be active. If you want to confirm your web site with Google, for instance, you'll just need to log in to your account with them a few minutes later and ask them to check your domain or subdomain. It doesn't take longer for a TXT record to go live if you want it for any other purpose.
TXT Records in Semi-dedicated Servers
A new TXT record could be set up for each and every Internet domain or subdomain that you have added to a semi-dedicated server account from our company and the Hepsia Control Panel, provided with all accounts created on our groundbreaking cloud platform, will enable you to do that without difficulty irrespective of your level of experience with such matters. All domains/subdomains you have are going to be listed in alphabetical order in a drop-down menu, so after you pick the one that you need and you choose TXT as the record type, you'll simply have to enter the text that'll be the actual record and you will be all set. This is done inside the DNS Records section of the Control Panel and if you have any issues, you will find a step-by-step tutorial inside the same section. Our tech support team will also be there for you 24/7 and they will help you with any questions you could have. Within an hour the new record will be functioning, so you can proceed with the task you require it for.
