    It does not really make a difference as long as you choose one and are consistent. You should do a 301 redirect with your hosting account redirecting the alternate to your chosen preference. Now days I tend to use the name without the www but being consistent is the key.

    You can use both. That way no one will miss your site. I don't think it has an effect on SEO.

    without is best i think, you can use redirection and it will be ok.
    For seo purpose it has an effect (in my newbie point of view) without redirection you can have duplicate content.

    both the same, but be sure to use only 1.
    I prefer with www, it looks more professions. >>> see the famous sites like facebook,youtube,google and etc. Many of them use www

    most of the time it does not matter, but make sure you are using 1 method. you want to make sure you are using the same when your doing and branding. if your using tools for seo the only thing that comes up most of the time is to remove http, but www or no www does not matter.
