Default www

Do you put www. before your domain? Is it important?

Nope, it's only really used if you are using SSL on your domain as SSL can only be defined on www. or http:// only

Nope, not at all.

Google automatically indexes your website to www if you don't use it.

A subdomain can help you in SEO but there is no point that a without www url will influence SEO.

I think there is no point in writing www. before your domain.

I'm probably using a very old version of WHMCS but clients are using "www." when signing up making it look like this:-

/home/account/www.domain.com/public_html/
When it should be
/home/sites/domain.com/public_html/

Causing a huge impact on problems, e.g. subdomains, .htaccess etc
I'm sure I screwed it up

Then upgrade to the newest version, unless you are using a nulled version
