I have a domain registered with Godaddy, using GoDaddy DNS hosting. Which actions need to be made in order to ensure that this Godaddy's services won't harm my site?

You would need to use DNS hosted elsewhere.

If your website is hosted somewhere other than GoDaddy, they likely provide DNS service, in which case you can just go into the GoDaddy DNS settings and set your NS records to the ones that the web hosting company provides.

Otherwise, you would need to sign up with a DNS hosting company (such as easydns, dnsmadeeasy, zoneedit, ultradns, etc.).
