Wix is a popular website builder that makes it easy to create and host a website. In order to verify your domain with Wix, you will need to add a DNS TXT record. This can be done easily by following these steps:

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with DNS TXT records, we recommend that you consult with your DNS provider before adding a DNS TXT record for domain verification. Incorrectly adding a DNS TXT record can result in your website becoming unavailable.

1. Log in to your Wix account and click on ‘My Domains.’ 2. Click on the domain that you want to verify. 3. Click on ‘DNS Settings.’ 4. Under ‘Custom Records,’ click ‘Add New Record.’ 5.

Select ‘TXT’ from the dropdown menu. 6. Enter ‘wix-verification’ into the ‘Name/Host/Alias’ field. 7. Enter the verification code provided by Wix into the ‘Value/Points To/Answer/Destination’ field. Make sure that there are no spaces before or after the code. 8. Click ‘Save’ and then ‘Publish.’

By following these simple steps, you can add a DNS TXT record for domain verification and ensure that your website is secure.
