Effect of www on SEO

[pensilvania]

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

[Dan]

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

[pensilvania]

Does it inflience SEO?

[Dan]

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.

www is important only for SEO.

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

Nope it's not nulled and had no idea of WHMCS nulled versions.
