WHM - DNS help

Well, Godaddy finally got the ips pointing to my site. Now my experiment with setting up the DNS for my website is showing up a mess at dnsreport.com. WHM - DNS help

Can a kind soul tell me what I did wrong with these DNS records?

This is how I'm trying to setup the DNS zone for my site.

General example of host.website.com DNS Zone file:
Code:
@ 14440 IN SOA alpha.website.com. admin.website.com.

Domain
host.website.com. 14400 IN NS alpha.website.com.
host.website.com. 14400 IN NS beta.website.com.
host.website.com. 14400 IN A 12.34.56.789
localhost.host.website.com. 14400 IN A 127.0.0.1
host.website.com. 14400 IN MX 0 host.website.com.
mail 14400 CNAME host.website.com.
www 14400 CNAME host.website.com.
ftp 14400 IN A 12.34.56.799
host 14400 IN A 12.34.56.789
General example of the nameserver DNS zones for alpha.website.com (and it's the same for beta.website.com):

Code:
@ 14440 IN SOA alpha.website.com. admin.website.com.

Domain
host.website.com. 14400 IN NS alpha.website.com.
host.website.com. 14400 IN NS beta.website.com.
host.website.com. 14400 IN A 12.34.56.789
localhost.host.website.com. 14400 IN A 127.0.0.1
alpha.website.com 14400 IN MX 0 alpha.website.com
This part I think is where the problems are compounded /etc/named.cnf

Code:
key "rndckey" {
        algorithm hmac-md5;
        secret "[REMOVED]";
};


controls {
    inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { "rndckey"; };
};




zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "/var/named/named.ca";
};


zone "alpha.website.com" {
   type master;
    file "/var/named/alpha.website.com.db";
};

zone "host.website.com" {
    type master;
    file "/var/named/host.website.com.db";
};

zone "beta.website.com" {
    type master;
    file "/var/named/beta.website.com.db";
};
With this setup I'm getting DNS errors from anywhere from lameservers to even failing SOA.

What is wrong?
