On Windows Server 2008 IIS 7.5

You can add rewrite rule in web.config file to redirect domain.com to www.domain.com

Option 1:

<system.webServer>
<rewrite>
   <rules>
     <rule name="Canonical host name">
       <match url="^(.*)" />
         <conditions>
           <add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^www\.domain\.com$" negate="true" />
         </conditions>
       <action type="Redirect" url="http://www.domain.com/{R:1}" />
      </rule>
   </rules>
</rewrite>
</system.webServer>

Option 2:

<system.webServer>
  <rewrite>
    <rules>
    <clear />
    <rule name="WWW Rewrite" enabled="true">
      <match url="(.*)" />
        <conditions>
          <add input="{HTTP_HOST}" negate="true"
            pattern="^www\.([.a-zA-Z0-9]+)$" />
        </conditions>
        <action type="Redirect" url="http://www.{HTTP_HOST}/{R:0}"
          appendQueryString="true" redirectType="Permanent" />
      </rule>
    </rules>
  </rewrite> 
<system.webServer>
