Configuring a domain may look like a tedious job when you are new at it. Now that you have to do it yourself, don’t worry; we’re here to help you do this fairly easy.
A brief about TXT records / string to the DNS records of your domain to help services like Google Ad sense or any third party integration service to identify/authorize your domain or server.
Important to note:
If you have a domain from Namecheap or GoDaddy and Hosting from another company you must have used custom DNS records against your Domain on NameCheap and GoDaddy, in that case you must add the TXT record in the cPanel of your hosting provider, under the Domains section as the entire DNS is now redirected to your hosting provider.
