The Apache is set up to serve personal web pages in:
/home/user/public_html

I do not suggest a ".www" directory, since many ftp clients do not list
directories with a dot before them.

Just create the public_html directory in each of your user's file, then
chmod it to 0755 so it's world readable.

Or, better, if you want to create this directory automagically each time
you add a new user, add the directory in /etc/skel.
