To Avoid Confusion
Its better to add with http and https versions –  http://yourdomain.com, https://yourdomain.com.

Adding domain with “www” is like adding a subdomain, if you are accessing your website without “www”, add a domain name without “www”

Adding domain name in multiple ways won’t cause an issue like http://example.com,  https://example.com,  https://www.example.com
