Question about the positioning of meta tags

    I'm using a plugin for my wordpress blog but it generates the meta keyword and description tags just on top of the </head>, which is under all of these:

    <link rel="stylesheet"
    <link rel="alternate"
    <link rel="pingback"
    <link rel="EditURI"

    My question is, does it matter where the meta tags are positioned or does it have to be on top right under the <title>?

    Thanks! :)

    Nope, as long as it's within the <head></head> tag you're fine.

    agreed it belongs between the head tags and should not matter otherwise
