    use modrewrite to make it www. every time - that way if people use it with or without its always directed to the same ...!

    it does not matter. what matter is that use only one either domain.com or www.domain.com and redirect second one to first one.

    well it really doesn't matter if you use the "www" or not, but just make sure that all of your urls open in the same format. I mean they all must be without the "www" or they all must be with "www".

    Actually, the domain name is the major integer for search engine optimization but its just a mini - tweak for the General Keyword regarding to your content is located on your domain.

    Like for instance your keyword and your targeted users are related to Health insurance then eventually a domain name consisting health insurance is better for a search engine indexing process.But the majority of branding and marketing is not needed to use long words so you eventually don't need a domain name for seo.

    It doesn't have any effect on SEO. But make sure when doing link building decide whether to link to yourdomain.com or www.yourdomain.com and use that forever because Google treats both of them as a different site so if you build half of the links for www.yourdomain.com and half for yourdomain.com that will divide your links and can waste your lot of effort.

    Both are the same but when linking to your site from other sites, always use the same version.

    Doesn't make much of a difference really. Though, I prefer without the www. for faster typing just in case the traffic is direct. :)

    www is actually a subdomain of your site.

    Domain name does not matter to any case. The main theme is that key word and types of site.

    Both are fine - it is just recommended that you have only ONE so that whatever traffic that comes to your site from either of the domains, gets redirected to one. I prefer www. but there are people who say otherwise.

    There's no matter with www or not. After you decide, don't forget to make a 301 redirect from one to another (to those domain which you prefer).

    It does not really matter, but make sure it redirects properly. As long as you stay consistent with your linking methods you should be okay.

    The domain holding a specific keyword is good.

    it the same with got www or without www . But when you build link juice, make sure you always use the same format , either with www or without www. Or not when you check on the link juice, you will see the different. While i get different amount of backlink from both got www and without www.
