DNS Records not found for a website

DNS Records not found for a website

I am running a dedicated server.
The server is running two sites. This morning one website is not working
and I found that there is a problem with the dns settings. I don't know
how it happened very suddenly.
The other website is working properly.
nslookup @domainname.com
Server: 8.8.8.8
Address: 8.8.8.8#53
** server can't find @domainname.com: NXDOMAIN
I checked online dns tools and they are reporting errors.
nslookup for another site is also not working
But dig for another site is working properly.
dig @domainname.com
dig: couldn't get address for 'domainname.com': not found
and ping is reporting
ping: unknown host domainname.com
dig SOA sitename.com
; <<>> DiG 9.8.2rc1-RedHat-9.8.2-0.17.rc1.el6_4.6 <<>> SOA sitename.com

I tried one online website for nslookup.
DNS server handling your query: localhost
