Technical/Programming/Non-SEO Pros and Cons of WWW or no-WWW?
- by Ingenutrix
What are technical/programming/non-SEO pros and cons of www or no-www, for domains as well as sub-domains?
From Jeff Atwood's twitter at http://twitter.com/codinghorror/status/1637428313 :
"sort of regretting the no-www choice because it causes full cookie submission to ALL subdomains. :("
What does this mean? Is there a blog post or article detailing this?
What other specific issues and their reasons should be considered for www. vs no-www.
Update:
On searching for more info on this topic, I found following helpful ( in addition to Laurence Gonsalves answer ) :
Dropping the WWW Prefix
Impact on search results: Jivlain's and Isaac Lin's comments

on StackOverflow : Should I default my website to www.foo or not?
