I've always read the opposite. That using the www. subdomain was bad form. That it was an anachronism and meant people would need to remember extra chars that had nothing to do with your branding.
- zrail 13y agoIt almost certainly doesn't matter for branding. Normal people look past the www because it's so common. Putting your site on a subdomain gives you the distinct advantage of being able to CNAME to whatever you want, since CNAMEs don't work well on a bare domain. Putting a redirect in place means that your branding and marketing can just have "example.com" and it'll just automatically work.
