    If you want traffic to come from SERPs, it's bad. Google is getting pretty smart, so I think it will soon be an old wive's tale about duplicate www/non-www, but better safe than sorry. There are guides all over for a redirect.

    Under normal circumstances, it would be very good to have your problem, but since we all want to avoid trouble with Google and other search engines or advertisers, it is better to redirect to the www.

    It doesn't matter whether you have www or non-www, just as long as you use one and not the other. Choose whichever you prefer and redirect to it.

    You can choose no www. But don't make it load with www and non/www, because google will penalize you.

    If you want to optimize right, do it www or nonwww, but not both.
