Hello every one , does having www in front of domain make any difference in seo the not having them.What is the best practice ?

No, it doesn't matter to google... It's wise to pick either www or non ww and stick with it. Www vs non www is a personal preference.

I will just redirect on a browser to http://

No, it doesn't make any difference, either one will work just fine.

It doesn't make a difference. www is basically just a sub-domain you create for your root domain (example.com)

I never thought that it would make a difference for SEO purposes but it's nice to know that that is actually the case.

It doesn't make any difference. Its just that people are used to remembering domains with www and . com, and nothing else

Direact answer for this question is NO. If your adding/removing www to your site for benefits, they will ban the both pages.

You should use www because today you have a small website, and tomorrow you may have really big website.
The technical reasons to use www primarily apply to the largest websites which receive millions (or more) of page views per day.

Therefore, it is recommended to prepare for the future.

Doesn't matter, I prefer without the www because it looks nicer, I also see most of my niche competitors ditch the www.

Technical Difference between WWW vs non-WWW. When you add www. in front of a site, it acts as a hostname which can help with flexibility with DNS, the ability to restrict cookies when using multiple subdomains, and more. Whereas non-WWW domains also referred to as naked domains do not have a technical advantage

My host states that forcing non-www -> to www or vice versa creates a 301 redirect. Does this raise a concern with page speed?

My host allows the option to leave it alone so that both non-www and www will function and it appears in this instance it is done without the use of a redirect. From a page speed perspective is this worth doing.. leaving it alone?
