SERVFAIL means there was a failure to properly resolve something. Not necessarily a BIND error.

Do this and analyze the output:

dig +trace goelexports.com

Also you are using an old version of DIG. You may want to consider updating BIND.

It also appears that you are running a recursive server on this machine. Do you have UDP and TCP ports 53 open to this server? You need both open.
