What is a TXT record in DNS?

A TXT record is a DNS record used to store text-based information. It is commonly used for email authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) and domain ownership verification.

TXT records allow domain owners to publish verification and authentication policies. SPF and DKIM use TXT records to define authorized email servers and cryptographic verification keys.

What happens if a TXT record is missing?

If a required TXT record (like SPF or DMARC) is missing, email delivery may fail, messages may go to spam, or verification services may not confirm domain ownership.

Can TXT records affect website performance?

No. TXT records do not impact website loading speed. They are mainly used for verification and authentication purposes.
