    Geo tags go in the header section of your webpage, and they also are some meta tags. You should add them betwen the <head> </head> section. For a step by step explanation: Geo Tag Generator

    Yes place GEO Tag in <head> section. You can place them anywhere in between it and rankings won't be affected.

    Geotagging or geocoding is a way to add geographical meta data to photos, RSS feeds, and websites. put it in the <head> section.

    Hello,

    Geo tags are used in header section and they are very helpful for location based search or local search. You can also use them in images.

    Where to put Geo tags?
    It all depends on what your working with, example schema geo tags can go directly in the content HTML.

    Example:

    [source]
    Code:
    <div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Place">
      <h1>What is the latitude and longitude of the <span itemprop="name">Empire State Building</span>?</h1>
      Answer:
      <div itemprop="geo" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/GeoCoordinates">
        Latitude: 40 deg 44 min 54.36 sec N
        Longitude: 73 deg 59 min 8.5 dec W
        <meta itemprop="latitude" content="40.75" />
        <meta itemprop="longitude" content="73.98" />
      </div>
    </div>
