enableinternet.com has a CNAME. Bad idea. It will work or fail,
depending on the resolver (check_soa and zonecheck cannot test it for
that reason). I suggest to replace it by an A.

Same remark. Besides, this domain has only one nameserver,
mikalen.enableinteractiveconsulting.com... which does not exist. It
has a glue in ".com" but it is not known by the two nameservers of
enableinteractiveconsulting.com. It explains your apparently random
issues.

Stupid and spurious report by dnsreport (it occurs often on ".org"
domains).
