No, you have done nothing wrong.  If your site resolved to both www and non-www, you would take a beating from Google for having duplicate site content.   Portfolio rightfully redirects all incoming traffic to the primary domain at  HTTPS : // domain . com or HTTPS : // your_name . portfolio . com. 

 

Make sense?

Browsers hide “www.”  So you can’t know if it’s there.

"Browsers hide 'www'"

Not true.  Browsers don't hide anything. 

Reputable websites configure their servers properly.  Sadly, not all servers are properly configured.

 

Primary domain = example . com

     subdomain = www . example . com
