Chill here please. Girls to the left, boys to the right (what is left and right, decide for yourself, I don't care):

Until now, I see how people in different countries are compulsorily typing www. This part has become accustomed to people's heads as part of any website address on the Internet.

because they comply with the standards (The standard is unspoken).
www - web service
smtp - service for sending messages
ftp - file service
This is due to the division of tasks among different hosts (virtual servers)
, but it seems that it is not fixed anywhere in writing.
I did not find it in these documents:
